If nomodeset is needed, it's a kernel bug, not a GRUB bug. Reassigning there so that the kernel team can look at it.

You can avoid having to edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg every time by editing /etc/default/grub and changing this line:

  GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"

... to this:

  GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset"

Then run 'sudo update-grub'. This will then automatically be applied on future kernel upgrades.
