[Bug 1965689] Re: Black screen instead grub menu at boot

I also experience this issue with a freshly installed 22.04.2. It might
be related to GRUB 2 package of Ubuntu - because, if I launch the system
from another OS grub menu (configured with grub-customizer to see this
Ubuntu) - then there's no black screen during the boot of 22.04.2 and I
am able to see the text logs during the boot process. This issue might
be also related to that I'm using the crappy NVidia card (which, unlike
AMD, doesn't have the official opensource drivers and is bad for
opensource in general)

Title:
  Black screen instead grub menu at boot

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Fresh install of Ubuntu 22.04 on multi-boot system.

  Steps:
  1. Switch on computer.
  2. You see for about 10 seconds a black screen instead GRUB MENU.
  3. After 10 seconds Ubuntu boots normally.

  Extra tests:
  - During the 10 seconds of black screen, I can press ENTER and Ubuntu will boot.
  - I thought that maybe grub menu was just not visible but still there, so I've tried to use "arrow keys" (up and down) to select a different system and then press Enter... but nothing happened, the screen remained black.
