Like jojo said in #49 GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text solves the problem.

some more info:
This bug affects me after a fresh installation of lubuntu-17.10-desktop-i386 on a HP Mini 5101.

installation uses kernel 4.13.0-16-generic.

lspci:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GSE Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller rev 0

Kernel 4.11.0-041100_4.11.0-041100.201705041534 works fine.

grub option GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep does not work, same problem comes back

GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text solves the problem for me!
