it would, but find is the right tool for the job.  

find / -name REL*

man find for LOTS of other options

When you say manually, do you mean by editing files?  The file you want
is /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (if you're running X4 which I think you will
be)

The section in that file you are after will look like this

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "Laptop Graphics Card"
    Driver      "i810"
    VideoRam    11264
    Option      "UseFBDev"      "true"
EndSection

Change the 'Driver' section to reflect your new choice, you must have
the requested file in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers.
