Thanks for the suggestion. My earlier experiments with nouveau haven't
come to much, but I'll see if it helps.
When I looked at the switch to nouveau there was a problem: grub didn't
show the commands mentiioned in the rpmfusion nvidia howto.
I found an updated procedure at
https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/how-to-properly-revert-from-nvidia....
but haven't tried that because the resets seem to have gone away; and I
didn't see them on another similar (but 4-core) system.
Currently I'm with kwin 5.27.10-3, driver 470.223.02-2, kernel 6.7.6-100
