[sane-devel] Scsi scanner?

[Brad]

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

===================================================
For Linux, there is an alternate way  of  specifying  scanner  devices. This  
alternate  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 number, 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
===================================================

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

Regards,
Brad
