Kevin,
Great question!  This information can be found in the Serial Hardware and Software for Windows Help at Serial Hardware and Software for Windows Help >> Troubleshooting and Frequently Asked Questions >> Frequently Asked Questions >> Can I use NI serial hardware with a non-Windows platform?

The boards supported by LabVIEW Real-Time are actually determined by the NI-Serial driver.  Currently the only boards supported in LabVIEW Real-Time are the PXI-842x and the ENET Series.  Work is being done to add Real-Time support for the PXI-813x series to a future version of the driver.
