I have an HP scsi scanner connected to an Advansys PCI SCSI card on my Re=
d Hat=20
8.0 PC and it says in the sane-scsi man page:

=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D
For Linux, there is an alternate way  of  specifying  scanner  devices. T=
his =20
alternate  way is based on /proc/scsi/scsi and allows to identify scanner=
s by=20
the SCSI vendor and model string and/or by the SCSI  device address=20
(consisting of bus number, channel number, id, and logical unit number). =
 The=20
syntax for specifying a scanner in this way is:

scsi VENDOR MODEL TYPE BUS CHANNEL ID LUN
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D

=46rom this I conclude the the first word (scsi) is a command, and I have=
 no=20
such command on my Linux system, nor can I see anything in the supplied R=
PMs=20
either. Can anyone shed any light on this?
