Look in your init.ora or v$parameter to find the value of user_dump_dest. This is the default storage location for the trace file. Because it will have an ora_xxxx.trc file name, you'll have to pick it out be time or grep for something within the file to locate it. When you find it, rename it.

The destination of your udump in the init.ora tells you where your user trace files are.
Search through your udump for the variuos .trc files and rename the controlfile to a meaningful name. Otherwise if you did not specify the dest in the init.ora, the default is in $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/log. Find your controlfile there by searching through the files, one after the other using vi.

Good luck.
