u can make use of the find command with the using the following flags
- amin n.................................. for last accessed time
- cmin n.................................. for last changed time
- mmin n.................................for last data modification time

n is the no of minutes ago...

for instance
$ find -name <file name> -ctime 2

this should work just fine Smilie
