Fedora 11 suddenly freeze


Dear Friends,

I installed the Fedora 11 in my computer,
While I'm browsing the net, suddenly it frezeed itself,
I still can move my mouse but can't click any of the application,
Anyone have same experience like me?

Please tell me what to repair ?
Is it because of the Modem ?
I'm using HSDPA Modem 3G Sierra 811,

Thanks for your sharing

It could be your graphics card too

does it only happen when web browsing, only in browser?

you can try a quick test if your willing

boot up any puppy
browserpuppy is good
run it from hd or usb, if you don't wanna burn a cd

choose "xorg" when it asks
does it freeze?

choose "xvesa"
does it freeze?

this is how I found out that xorg does not support my onboard graphics
only xvesa

edit the # grub.conf from /etc/grub

where say :
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686 ro root=UUID=01f52f6b-72c5-4a53-b482-c9edb14c90d6 rhgb quiet

add: nomodeset
