[Fedora-xen] Dom0 and colord

I'm testing Xen dom0 on a Fedora 16 i686 box. I notice a process called
/usr/libexec/colord, that leads to high cpu load, resulting in a
spinning cpu fan. The process also runs when Xen is not running, but then
the TIME reported by 'ps ax' is 0:00.

As I'm blind and don't use any X or GUI, I think I don't need the colord
process, so I did 'killall -9 /usr/libexec/colord'. However, this
doesn't work from a script, like /etc/rc.d/rc.local, and I need to do it
manually after every reboot.

Where is colord started, and how can I get rid of the process?

Thanks and regards,
Lars
