This does not have anything to do with grub.

Title:
  on Ubuntu server 16.04 and 14.04, the display stops working after
  installation

Status in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The display driver for my Nvidia G-Force 5200 is not compatible with the original driver that was installed 
  and I had no display on neither 14.04 nor 16.4.
  I did SSH to my server and run these commands to install a new Nvdia driver 
  in order to have display on the server:

  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get upgrade

  # install the latest version
  $ sudo apt-get install nvidia-current

  And restart the server.
