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": -------------------------------------- Sep 21 21:22:37 rose systemd-logind[358]: Lid opened.

Would it be possible to boot into the previous kernel to verify if it is a coincidence?

I'm afraid I'm not sure how to do that. I'd be happy to try if someone could suggest the way.

When you boot your system, don't you have a menu to select up to 3 kernels?

and that is why i cried on @devel about the idea to hide the GRUB menu as default
now we have exactly what i said will happen: users in trouble does not know how to boot the still installed older kernel because they never learned that there are more than one because they never faced it as all the years before
developers these days forgot how we learned things in the early days
and that wil always be the price if you give up good technical solutions for a more shiny look which does only interest if this are going well

You are quite right, of course, I was being stupid.
I find that when I boot into 3.10.10-200.fc19.i686.PAE there appears to be no problem. (I'm currently running 3.11.1-200.fc19.i686.PAE.)

Sounds like bugzilla time then.....

Any news on this? I'm having the same problem (haven't checked downgrading the kernel though).

Ups sorry for the noise, got to the opened bug.
For reference: Fedora bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1010603 points to upstream systemd bug https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69663 which points to kernel bug of userspace corruption https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61781 .
Reverting to 3.10 here as well :)
