Suspension problem last 2 days

[Timothy Murphy]

I've been having a problem on my Thinkpad T61 for the last 2 days.
In fact since "yum update" installed kernel-PAE-3.11.1-200.fc19.i686,
though that is probably a coincidence.

The problem is that when the laptop lid is closed and then opened later
the machine is in a confused state.
For example it is impossible to shutdown the machine
except by pressing the power button for 10 seconds.

I just wondered if anyone else has had similar symptoms recently?

These are some of the entries in /var/log/messages following "Lid opened":
