I upgraded to kernel-2.6.2-1.85 in the fedora/development tree.

I don't know if you had any problems with FC2T1 on your i8100 but
the kernel upgrade *seems* to have solved my freezing problems.
I have been running the machine for 5 hours now and everything
seems to be going smoothly (except for the standard bugs with
nautilus, etc.).
