As far as I can tell, the search bar in the Files place only locates recent documents. I did a clean install of 11.04 but kept my files intact (separate /home partition). Anything under Recent Documents shows up when I search, but nothing else does. For a particularly silly example, if I click on the Files & Folders button, it shows me Recent, Downloads, and Favourite Folders. In the Downloads section is a file called poster.tex. If I type 'poster' into the search bar, I get 'Your search did not match any files'.
