    This is a good general way to see what files have been changed recently:

    [summer@Wagtail ~]$ ls -torah | tail
    -rw------- 1 9.6K Jun 28 09:25 .viminfo
    drwx------ 2 4.0K Jun 29 01:15 .gconfd
    drwxr-xr-x 4 436K Jun 29 09:10 SharePrices
    drwx------ 2 4.0K Jun 29 13:51 .gnupg
    drwx------ 7 4.0K Jun 29 13:52 Mail
    -rw-rw-r-- 1 93 Jun 30 07:14 .fonts.cache-1
    -rw------- 1 510K Jun 30 07:52 .bash_history
    -rw------- 1 362 Jun 30 07:53 .Xauthority
    drwxr-xr-x 105 12K Jun 30 07:53 .
    -rw-rw-r-- 1 12M Jun 30 08:53 x-log
    [summer@Wagtail ~]$

    Mine's in x.log because I used startx from a text console and put it
    there. You will have a different filename, but the same command will
    show you what it is.

    On another system here, it's in a file inc ~.vnc because I am using a
    VNCsession.
