I have two monitors. The first one 1600x900 is connected to the DVI output. The second 1400x900 is connected to the analog output. Here's the result of xrandr.

Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1600 x 900, maximum 8192 x 8192
DVI-I-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DVI-I-1 connected 1600x900+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 443mm x 249mm
   1600x900       60.0*+
   1440x900       59.9
   1280x1024      60.0
   1280x720       60.0
   1024x768       60.0
   800x600        60.3
   640x480        59.9

Do you have multiple video outputs on this machine? Open a konsole and see what xrandr tells you. I had a similar problem earlier with my older video card that had composite-out. Main monitor's 1400x900, TV-out was 800x600. Firefox thought the screen was only 600 pixels high, so it'd only draw menus with a max height of 600px. I did something like "xrandr --output TV off" except when I was actually using the TV-out, which seemed to get firefox working better.

(Tangentially related: Why would you ever have 1 application taking up the whole screen unless that application was a game, a movie, an image viewer, or an IDE?)
