Title:
  Dell Inspiron 17r 5737 Ubuntu 18.04 Video Looks Very Strange

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  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.

  "lsb_release -rd" gives Ubuntu 18.04 LTS release 18.04.
