[Bug 722950] Re: ctrl-x does not work in grub-efi

[Janne Snabb]

I am affected by this issue on Ubuntu 15.04 x86_64. I have AMI
BIOS/UEFI. Ctrl-X does not work (but F10 works). In my case 'x' is
inserted as if I did not press Ctrl key.

I found a discussion and a potential patch at:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/grub-devel/2013-08/msg00003.html

Title:
  ctrl-x does not work in grub-efi

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub2

  If I boot the Natty daily livecd in EFI mode and press e at the grub
  prompt to edit the command, it says to press ctrl-x to boot the entry.
  Pressing ctrl-x results in it just inserting the letter 'x' instead of
  booting.
