After booting there are leftovers of boot logs in the console. It is always a fixed number of lines. In console mode with the resolution of 640*480 it covers the whole screen leaving the console prompt completely out of bounds and I'm forced to use it blindly.

In graphics mode it covers only a little top section of the screen divided from the operational part of the screen by a purple line, however when the console becomes filled with text the prompt still goes out of bounds, so I'm still forced to operate half blind.

  • Your monitor is probably too old to send EDID data to the computer which would tell it the correct screen resolution. Replace the monitor. – Michael Hampton Apr 27 '18 at 14:18

Alright, I've found the solution here. The problem was in the grub settings. I've just set the line

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=""

to

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nomodeset"

Thanks, everyone who tried to help me!
