[sane-devel] SCSI autodetection on non-Linux systems?

Hi,

man sane-scsi currently states:

 For Linux, there is an alternate way of specifying scanner devices.
 This alter- nate way is based on /proc/scsi/scsi and allows to
 identify scanners by the SCSI vendor and model string and/or by the
 SCSI device address (consisting of bus num- ber, channel number, id,
 and logical unit number).  The syntax for specifying a scanner in
 this way is:
				   
 scsi VENDOR MODEL TYPE BUS CHANNEL ID LUN
 
 
However, the code in sanei_scsi.c looks like sanei_scsi_find_devices()
was also implemented for FreeBSD, OS/2, and Irix. Is this correct?
Does autodetection work on these platforms?

Bye,
  Henning
