I find that I need to 'sudo /etc/init.d/martian restart' before I can
use efax etc (permissions). In your 2008 instructions you indicated
using: $ sudo update-rc.d martian start 45 2 3 4 5 . stop 55 0 1 6
to update the links. Now that we're on 10.10+ I get this when attempting
that:
update-rc.d: warning: martian stop runlevel arguments (0 1 6) do not
match LSB Default-Stop values (none)
update-rc.d: error: start|stop arguments not terminated by "."
The following line should read exactly:
$ sudo update-rc.d martian start 45 2 3 4 5 . stop 55 0 1 6 .
As far as the warnings go, it looks like update-rc.d tightened up on
sysv script requirements as I don't remember getting those messages back
then, Anyway, it's easy to remedy. All you need is a section like the
following under #!/bin/sh in /etc/init.d/martian
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: martian_modem
# Required-Start:
# Required-Stop:
# Should-Start:
# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop: 0 1 6
# Short-Description: martian modem driver
### END INIT INFO
By the time it starts everything that martian_modem requires to work
should already be running, so the Required/Should values are left blank.
Lastly, since you're having to restart the daemon in order to use efax,
there could be an issue with efax trying to lock /dev/ttySM0 but can't.
Check /var/lock and see if wvdial/gnome-ppp left a stale lock when it
closed.

Do I leave in:
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: martian_modem
# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5
# Short-Description: martian_modem
# Description: martian_modem
# Author: Stefan Puch
# Adjustments for 2006/11 release A. Chentsov

No stale lock. And gnome-ppp has the same issue:
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60
--> Cannot open /dev/ttySM0: Permission denied
--> Cannot open /dev/ttySM0: Permission denied
--> Cannot open /dev/ttySM0: Permission denied

I wonder if the issue is:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/martian status
martian_modem (PID 2818) is running...
$ sudo /etc/init.d/martian-modem status
martian-modem is RUNNING using process id 2143.
martian_modem is running and martian-modem is running. Should they both
be running at the same time?
