I had the exact same problem , it would lockup about 3 times a day but
it cleared after the last update for F12
Not one lockup since
Make sure you are completely up to date
The reason I am waiting to go up from F12 is the release of F14 is so
close and I am going to have to format this 1 TB since the boot
partition is not big enough.
I am going to use a 1 gig boot this time allowing for future Fedora
releases. Just in case the size of the boot partition goes up again
