Title:
  post jammy update, black/flickering screen on boot

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After initial jammy upgrade things were working fine, but after a
  recent update the machine boots to a blank screen.  There are
  occasional purplish flickers that seem to correspond with keypresses,
  but even blindly typing the encrypted disk password doesn't appear to
  advance the boot process to gdm.

  Plugging in an external monitor does fix the issue and allow boot to
  proceed, but obviously doesn't help if not near an external monitor.
