I was just reading an article on a program called slocate. It looks really cool for finding files but I don't seem to have it on my SUSE box. It seems to be specific to Fedora/Redhat. Is there something like it for SUSE? Or what do I have to install to get it?
i think you mean "locate" and "updatedb" .. search for these keywords in yast and you will find something. first you must run "updatedb" as root, after that, you can search for files with "locate" ! this database must be updated manually to be authentic! alternative you can use "whereis" .... cya frank
