Bug description:
  For all(as I know) Huawei servers, the vga adapter are embed in the
  iBMC chips. Those server can install from ISO manually for 16.04.4 and
  screen display normally. But for 18.04 ( tested both for daily and
  final beta)version, the install screen is blur. One of tested server
  is Huawei 2855 v5, the certification link for 16.04 are
  https://certification.ubuntu.com/hardware/201707-25596/.

  Below are key difference of dmesg. It seems might related with DRM.
