Did this start happening when you installed a new version of X11, or a
video driver? Check /var/log/yum.log if you're not sure.

Also, when a lockup occurs, try logging in from another machine and see
if the system is up or not. This will mean enabling SSH logins (and
possibly opening a firewall hole) so test it before the next lockup
happens.
