Since I don't have a CentOS ( RedHat ) machine, I can't give you a specific line anywhere, but I can surmise that it's triggered by a cron job.

[RDD] Appliance dvd and joystick
Hi all,
I have a joystick setup as a gpi and works fine until Centos does
maintenance.
Dec 7 09:55:47 rivendell ripcd: ran local maintenance routines
Dec 7 09:56:35 rivendell kernel: hub 4-0:1.0: port 2 disabled by hub
(EMI?), re-enabling...

[DragonRise Inc. Generic USB Joystick ] on usb-:00:12.1-2
Usually this has been at 8:56 but today its done it at 9:56 in the
middle of a talk back show with add breaks.
Evan with a udev rule, 49.local.rules
BUS=="usb", SYSFS{product}=="Generic USB Joystick ",
Kernel=="event**", Name="rivbutton1"
Above all on one line.
This works fine after a reboot but stops when Centos does maintenance.
The only way to get the macros going again is to close rdairplay and
restart rivendell daemons.
Is there a way to stop Centos from doing maintenance on the usb
joystick?
Thanks
Gary.
