This looks like magicdev, which checks every two seconds to see if there is a disc in the CD-ROM drive when in X Windows. This is beneficial, as it will automatically mount the CD if you put one in the drive. As a temporary fix, you can enter `magicdev stop`. A more permanent fix would be to remove the magicdev package (rpm -e magicdev), or find the entry in the Control Center where it has 'automount CD on insertion'.
