** Description changed: When booting 18.04 on my Dell 5737 I am greeted with an image like the attached. The colours are clearly incorrect and the display looks to be of low resolution. This is true whether booting from a fresh distribution copy on a memory stick or the subsequent patched install. The image on an external monitor appears unaffected. This looks like a reappearance of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1300349 and https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2204287 Someone else appears to have the same issue on a similar machine: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1036968/no-red-color-on-screen-after- installing-18-04-on-dell-inspiron-3737/1047143#1047143 Adding "nomodeset" does make the machine usable but obviously isn't ideal.
