Fair enough. Then be honest in your writings which are on a publicly accessible website advocating Linux instead of trashing Suse in what appears to be ignorance.
It is a publicly editable wiki. If you disagree with the contents, edit it and put in your own objective observations. This is more positive than telling other people what they should write.
Use find. With fast discs nowadays what is the point of keeping an extra database of the disc structure when it is already there in the filesystem on the disc?
I use both locate and find a lot, and they are good at different things. I wouldn't want to do a find on my whole filesystem every time I'm looking for installed .css files - locate indexes the filenames and returns them pretty much instantly, find would take minutes to go through my hard drive, as well as slow down the rest of the system and possibly help wear out the disk faster.
