I would guess that they are somewhere. Look at the file names of the pictures that were taken recently and take a guess at a file name that would have been in the batch you are looking for. e.g. "DPC1234.jpg" . Use your file manager and do a full system search for that file name. Start by searching from /home/your_user_name and check the box to include all sub-folders in the search. If that fails start a search from / (root). Will take a while. You say this was a new camera - was the date set? If not the folder may have just sorted to 1990 or somewhere at the bottom of the list in Picasa, as the picture dates may be wrong. What name did you give to the folder that you first imported to? Search for that (or part of that e.g. "Chlodagh") as above. Good Luck.
