How to you use wildcards, especially the * (star) in Linux Ubuntu Nautilus GUI File Search?
I also was just struggling with this issue, but I think I found an answer.
Going back to the original post, here are the equivalent Windows and Nautilus search patterns:
Windows: "win*.dll"
Nautilus: "win dll"
Basically, try using a spacebar character in Nautilus where you would use a * character normally. I think I FINALLY figured this out, after years of trying... sigh.
