Aha!

>From the look of it, your X server isn't properly configured, it's
thinking the display has a different dimension.  The fact that some
lines of text have a grey edge and others don't is a dead giveaway.

I dunno how you configure things, there are a number of GUI tools
around these days, and I'm still at editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf...

Now, I don't know which X11 incantation you use.  As you might guess,
I use Xorg, so I'll take it from that one, please translate to yoru
configuration file (which looks the same, it's just likely to have a
somewhat different name if you don't run Xorg).  If you hack that
file, look for the Screen section, add a Subsection "Display" with the
dimensions of your display (you should have a man page xorg.conf(5) or
similar).

If you run Xorg, you can remove the Screen section, unless you have a
complex multi-display/multi-graphcard setup.  Xorg is pretty smart in
figuring out the hardware.

Cheers,
Richard
