How does that look exactly? I mean how are you sure there are some
more lines you can't see ?
Do you see the last line like a cut in half suggesting there's more off-screen ?

If the Full HD resolution isn't working well in your setup, you may
try to force a lower resolution by trying out 'video=1024x768' or
'vga=0x318' kernel parameters.
