rpm -ivh --test freetype-1.3.1-5.i386.rpm

states I already have it installed.

I should therefore be able to locate a directory somewhere on my system ../..?/../default/TrueType.

I can't. Man find states I need to know the path, but I don't know the path.

What command would I use to find a directory when I don't know the path?
What command would I use to find a file when I don't know the path?

Thanks
(by the way rh6.2)

try... find / -iname file
or find / -iname '*wildcard*'
