Although I have used Ubuntu for quite some time I have never been sure how to go about finding named files. I am not a Linux person although, I can use a terminal if needed. For example I needed to find any files with .lck as the extension and remove them otherwise I would be unable to burn DVDs using Mthtv. So, I went to Places -> Search for files, entered *.lck and the report was no files found. Yet there had to be at least one file which was causing me the problem. Eventually, after much research I found two files in a folder on my desktop.
Surely, Search for places should have found these or am I not using the utility correctly? Norman -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
