I installed some debuginfo RPMs and did a GDB backtrace.  The error happens in an infinite loop of

#10 0x00007fe4c9f063d9 in vncHooksMoveCursor (dev=<optimized out>, screen=<optimized out>, x=<optimized out>, y=<optimized out>)
    at /usr/src/debug/tigervnc-1.15.0-6.fc42.x86_64/unix/xserver/hw/vnc/vncHooks.c:1265

And finishes with

My card is a

Main board:
Base Board Information
        Manufacturer: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.
        Product Name: PRIME X670-P
        Version: Rev 1.xx

My Xorg session is run by xfce4-session-4.20.2-1.fc42.x86_64 and lightdm-1.32.0-13.fc42.x86_64

Just in case: I don't remember having these problems in the previous board, another CPU and nVidia card.

Please tell me if I can help more.  I can even run a specially crafted libvnc.so if this helps.  Just note that the bug is VERY random.  It could happen many times a day or keep weeks without showing.  Could not find any correlation.  Every time I remember I was locally, not in a remote VNC session.
