Try:
(modify-frame-parameters nil '((fullscreen . fullboth)))
For me this covers the whole screen. I reported this last year
sometime ... Emacs needs a new fullscreen mode that respects the fd.o
standard here. (It needs the current mode for presentation apps.)
Just a bit curious, isn't it the window managers job to put the window
into full screen? At least that's the way I do it. But I don't have a
panel or stuff, so maybe these problems don't exits here at all.
