Well actually there's 2 Googles to use http://www.google.com/
and http://www.google.com/linux I usually just use the first.
Hardly ever fails, but I sometimes also use
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?w=2
http://theory.uwinnipeg.ca/search/linux-search.html
I've never used Yahoo much, but I depend on Lycos FTP searches
http://ftpsearch.lycos.com/?form=medium here you can set preferences.
I set it to 50 returns, exclude any *BSD files, and sort by size/date
