This is annoying. I have black bars about 2 inchs in margin around my picture on pop. The resolution says 1920x1080, which indeed it is on a 1080p tv. Now my problem with the bars is not present on windows. I have messed with the TV to change from 16x9 to fit the screen and the border is still there. I vaguely remember ubuntu had an option to optimize for tv use I thought I might give that a shot, but I dont have that option in the displays settings.
@Trooper_ish any ideas?
The setting is called overscan I believe.
Absolutely nothing for that in the PopOS settings?
I do not see anything in popos settings…
I had this issue on random cheapo tv. It has a setting in the TV menu acessed with the remote.
Its called “HDMI MODE” with 3 settings, Audio, Video and PC. Only PC doesnt produce borders on pop os.
Like @nbm suggests, it might be on the TV side; if you do Ctl+Alt+F3 for a terminal screen, does it look to use the whole screen?
If the cursor/writing is offset like the black bars are still there, I think it might be TV side.
If the writing is the very top left, the like @w.meri suggests, there is probably a setting to change.
Ctl+Alt+F7 Or F1 to go back to the desktop…
I just figured it might be the drivers. There were the open source drivers that comes preinstalled with popos. I did the nvidia proprietary ones and it is fixed. F for open source.
Keep in mind this tv is 10 years old or just about and the popos box I am using is 2nd gen i series. So old hardware. Even the gpu is shite. It is a gt 610.
Grrr 
Grrr indeed.
Saw Popos and black border on topic title, expecting law enforcement related… 
OP should’ve probably respect the emphasis on the capitalization and needless punctuations on the branding 
You mean the Po-Po? pas in Police?
And yeah, @Ancient_Evil_God should have changed the title to include "Pop!_OS "
Actually, I’ll do it… Bwahahaha
