There is no such way;
main reason is that the serial hardware does not support these data
speeds (even under Win***).
But as I see from the rates that you mention, it seems that you talk via
a modem. Note that modem speed and speed of the serial port are two
different things. Modem speeds are normally handled by the modem
(automatically or by AT-commands), not by the linux serial driver.
I hope this helps, but feel free to ask more questions.

Why not? Uart baud rate is 115200/divisor, use 4 for 28800, 5 for 14400.
But you are right it is better to set uart to highest possible baud and
let modem convert, esp. if V.42bis compression is used.

Since the baud-base of 115,200 is divisible by these numbers you can do
it. Use a divisor of 8 to get 14400.
But the speed of transmission over a serial line can be any rate at all,
provided it's under the serial port speed selected. For example, if
it's been set for 115,200 I can (sort of) send bits at 96,049.37
bits/sec. Each byte is sent at 115,200 bits/sec but there is a rest
period after each byte to result in 96,049.37 bits/sec average. One may
calculate that for this example that there will be a 1.817 micro-sec
pause after the transmission of each byte during which time the line is
held at mark (-12 v) beyond the end of the stop bit (which also happens
to be mark). This is like inserting extra long stop bits so as to
adjust for the correct speed.

I it is a way.
cflags -> B38400; /* set the baud to 38400 */
static int pos_set_28800(int fd) {
struct serial_struct serinfo;
int ret;
if ((ret = ioctl(fd, TIOCGSERIAL, &serinfo)) < 0) {
fprintf(stderr,"Cannot get serial info\n");
} else {
serinfo.custom_divisor = 4;
/* Baudbase 115200/4 = 28800
115200/8 = 14400 */
serinfo.flags &= ~ASYNC_SPD_MASK;
serinfo.flags |= ASYNC_SPD_CUST;
if ((ret = ioctl(fd, TIOCSSERIAL, &serinfo)) < 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "Cannot set serial info\n");
}
}
return 0;
}
or set it with setserial.
It's running with kernel 2.4.xx
