[Bug 1753272] [NEW] Weird grub boot display since Bionic

[Nicolas Michel]

Public bug reported:

I have a Nvidia GTX 1070 Ti. Everything was fine on Artful. I decided to update to the Bionic beta to test it. Since then, the grub menu display is fucked up (when I move the highlight with the keyboard arrows, I have the text written twice: one in black and white, one with the purple/violet background and not aligned).
See the screenshot attached.
