Title:
  Dell Alienware Aurora R9 ubuntu 18.04LTS installation issue

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Issue:- Getting blank screen after the initial install grub prompt.

  Tried acpi=off, nomodeset parameters added in grub still no luck

  Note:- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS worked without any issues.

  Env:-

  ====

  UEFI - Dual boot, secure boot disabled, SATA to AHCI

  Bios vers - 1.0.7

  $find /sys/devices -name "edid"

  /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0/card0-HDMI-A-1/edid

  /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0/card0-DP-1/edid

  $lspci | grep VGA

  01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation TU104 [GeForce
  RTX 2080 SUPER] (rev a1)

  02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation TU104 [GeForce
  RTX 2080 SUPER] (rev a1)

  nomodeset:- defined to instructs the kernel to not load video drivers
  and use BIOS modes instead until X is loaded.

  Surprisingly this desktop comes with single HDMI slot. And there is no
  any DP port. We need to rely on this one. Apart from the
  nomodeset/acpi=off, is there any grub parameter can I try here? Please
  suggest.

  Please note:- we need to rely on 18.04 LTS due to application
  compatibility.

  Please suggest

  Thanks
