ls lists the contents of a diesctory, unless you add an option  (for
example) ls -R which lists all the files in a directory PLUS all the
files in subdirectories.

There are many disk-indexing applications, but my preference is for the
command line application locate.

As usual add with sudo apt-get install locate

You will then need to update the database with sudo updatebd (you will
also need to do this occasionally in the future)

Then you can type locate <file> to locate any file you want. e.g. 
locate 7zip  on my system gives a list:

/usr/bin/p7zipForFilemanager
/usr/lib/p7zip
/usr/lib/p7zip/7z
/usr/lib/p7zip/7z.sfx
.....
.....
.....
/usr/share/licenses/p7zip/License.txt
/usr/share/licenses/p7zip/unRarLicense.txt

Take a look at the Debian handbook sudo apt-get install debian handbook
(it's free but donations welcomed for updating, etc). Other sources for
information on X/K/ubuntu are the Official Documentation
<https://help.ubuntu.com/12.10/ubuntu-help/index.html>  pages and the
ubuntuforums.org <ubuntuforums.org> .

Hope this helps.
