Have you been working early today, say around 6:53 am? Then you have experienced the cron.daily cron job. This is a set of shell scripts, that do some background system maintenance, like removing old core files, rotating log files and updating the manual page index cache.
Nothing to worry about.

That's exactly it. Thanks. Can I reschedule that job to allow my typical early morning browsing? I haven't dug that deep yet other than to know that cron is in here. And given that I have a rather minimal system on that Micron, the word "background" is hardly appropriate. :)
have a look at /etc/crontab. I sheduled mine to 7:53 pm, cause that's the time the thing is on. # min hour 53 19 * * * root $HOME/bin/cron.daily have a look at the man-pages. there are a few examples in there.
