lubuntu 'find'

[betty]

uhh, i didn't get that, that seemed to search in man pages or something
but i did try this
> find ~ -name *sound*
and that works, i was just trying to find the *easier, read; lazy way*, 
to find a file where you just knew the name or part of the name but 
didn't remember which folder it was in.
THANKS
