Sorry, this likely doesn't help you but you may need a different search tool
for wildcard searches...

Baloo is tuned to provide fast results. It builds an index of things you
_might_ search for and does lookups in that index as you type your search. That
cannot really work for arbitrary wildcard searches.

It does however index parts of of filenames (and content) so you should get
results if you search for "033" and also gives you matches for truncated
searches such as "03"

You can see what terms baloo has indexed for a file with balooshow:

$ balooshow -x one-of-your-files
