Finding 2000 bp sequences that occur more than once in the genome

I am looking for a software that can identify long sequences (1500-2000 bp) that occur more than once in my genome of interest. A k-mer counter like KMC could have worked, but KMC has a max limit of ...

Do RepeatModeler results contain functional domains?

The repeat families predicted by RepeatModeler contain known transposable elements (TEs) and unknown ones. How do we know whether some of these may actually: within a functional domain of a gene or ...
