            Bug ID: 520040
           Summary: Grub boot menu width is not sufficient to the length
                    of a menu entries text (part of the text is hidden)
    Classification: KDE Neon
           Product: neon
      Version First unspecified

DESCRIPTION

KDE Neon does not seem to allow kernel choice during boot. So I have enabled
the boot menu:
sudo nano /etc/default/grub

replaced:

GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden
GRUB_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR='KDE neon User Edition'

by:

GRUB_DEFAULT=0
#GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=menu
#GRUB_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_TIMEOUT=3
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR='KDE neon User Edition'

so in case OS will fail working under some kernel in the future, i know how to
set older kernel.

but the grub boot menu (which is now displayed for 3 seconds), has a bug where
not all characters/text of a default boot entries is shown. It is as if there
is some frame which does not make the text span multiple lines or overflow,
instead remaining text is hidden. I have FullHD screen, so it does not make
much sense for the menu to be so narrow, or the text should span multiple lines
(it would look pretty bad on a wide screen with a lot of free space).
