You are strongly advised to get the latest FC2 kernel from Fedora Legacy
Project. I hope that at least the kernel is the only non up to date
component of your EOL Fedora Core release.

I think it makes not much sense to debug things happening with that old
kernel. Install kernel-2.6.10-1.771_FC2 (maybe other security updates
too) and see whether things happen again.
