To locate any file all you need to type is : $ locate my-file
e.g. me@mymachine > locate rgb.txt /extra/Office51/xp3/rgb.txt /home/yamed/Office51/xp3/rgb.txt /opt/Office51/xp3/rgb.txt /usr/lib/latex2html/styles/rgb.txt /usr/share/emacs/20.4/etc/rgb.txt /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt

Usually there is a line in your cron that fires 'updatedb' regularly so the database that the locate command consults contains current info, otherwise you have to su to root and execute that command after you install software.
