This happens if for whatever reason (usually a non-standard display configuration) MuseScore cannot detect your monitor resolution correctly. Soution is simple, just give the "-D xxx" command line option, where xxx is the resolution in DPI.

See #106241: Monitor resolution detected incorrectly, making sizes wrong for more info.

Note also you appear to be using an extremely old version of MuseScore, it's possible it will will work better for you if you update to a more recent version (eg, the current AppImage for Linux, which is always up to date, the Linux distributions themselves are almost always way behind).
