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?)
