FYI - You can also use Icicles to find and visit any file on your file system, without necessarily knowing its location.
When prompted by command `icicle-locate-file', type a regexp that matches any part(s) of an absolute file name (including perhaps directory components). The completion candidates are all of the absolute file names that match. This works on any system - no need for a Unix `locate' database or even a Unix `find' command.
