Public bug reported:
When I went to install ubuntu 14.04 on my new system (and tested 13.10
and 12.04), it seemed to be failing (black screen or flashing cursor). I
did a few things, but ended up discovering that it was loading on the
onboard video, not the card I was plugged into.
In the BIOS, the Nvidia GTX750 was selected as default, for some reason,
Ubuntu is not following this. Once I disabled the onboard card,
everything worked as expected! This could be a headache for a lot of
people, and I think it could be solved easily with an option of what
video card is to be used (this would be done at the same place nomodeset
is done, but not have to press any key to bring it up), or to be able to
detect BIOS settings.
