Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 17.10.1 boots into a black screen with no display, when switching
into "EFI VGA" during boot up.

Modifying the boot menu to run in "text" mode, shows the last line as
below, before losing all monitor output:

"Switching to EFI VGA"

The 15m DisplayPort cable shouldn't be a problem, but using a
DisplayPort-to-DVI adapter and a 1m DVI cable works
