Ok I found a fast graphical interface for slocate. In fact I found three :-

xlocate - I did not find a download site, but it will be out there somewhere.

klocate2 - Two versions. One for KDE2 and one for KDE3 
http://apps.kde.com/rf/2/latest  I tried to compile it, but so far without 
success.

kio_locate - A kio slave plug in for konqueror. There is an RPM in contrib and 
in texstar so 'urpmi kio_locate' is all you need to install it.

kio slaves allow you to enter a special url line in konqueror. 
To use kio_locate just type

locate://regular_expression
in the url line

BTW: Another really nice kio slave is kio_fish. It is installed by default in 
Mandrake 9.1. Just type 'fish://[EMAIL PROTECTED]'  in the url line and you 
will be able to manage the remote file system on any ssh capable computer. 
Much better than NFS IMO

HTH
