Hi.

During night time (at #03:38), /netbsd gives out the following
message. It's the same one which is also displayed when booting up.
Basically, I can't remember any more what it means (there was a thread
in this mailing list #1 year ago), but the problem is that after the
message appears, the top lines of the window manager are corrupt (#10
most top lines).

This is the message after which the pixel errors appear:

----- cut here -----
warning found rdb->secpercyl(1339) != rdb->nsectors(1340) * rdb->nheads(1)
warning unknown dostype: 0x0 marking unused
Partition 'DH_fusion' geometry 1/1340 differs from RDB 1/1340
Partition 'DH_big' geometry 1/1340 differs from RDB 1/1340
warning found rdb->secpercyl(257) != rdb->nsectors(258) * rdb->nheads(1)
Partition 'DH0' geometry 1/258 differs from RDB 1/258
Partition 'DH1' geometry 1/258 differs from RDB 1/258
Partition 'DH2' geometry 1/258 differs from RDB 1/258
Partition 'DH3' geometry 1/258 differs from RDB 1/258
Partition 'DH4' geometry 1/258 differs from RDB 1/258
Partition 'DH5' geometry 1/258 differs from RDB 1/258
----- cut here -----

This occurs whatever the resolution is (1024x879x16 and 1152x864x16
were tested) and whatever window manager is chosen (twm and
enlightenment).

What goes wrong here?
Is that a bug?

BTW, the message also appears when I mount an Amiga partition (ADOS).

I can get rid of the error when moving a window over the the area
concerned and moving it back to the initial position. In this case,
the upper part of the window will be rebuild properly.

A screenshot can be seen here:

Any help would be appreciated!
