Bug Description
I've installed ubuntu 17.10 with full disk encryption and then installed the nvidia drivers (v 384). when I boot the computer I will get the graphics interface to enter the encryption key but the system will stop to work, like it has hang. Basically I'm not able to enter the password!
I've to restart in safe mode to be able to enter the password for the encryption, after that I can just resume the boot and all works.
There seems to be some issues with the initial boot screen and nvidia drivers... I'm not able to press any combination of Control+Alt+Fx key to get any extra info about what is going on (not able to get any text mode).

I've just updated it to nvidia-387 and it still the same problem. gnome-desktop before I did install nvidia drivers.
By the way, I've installed ubuntu-
Another thing: when I start the computer I'm not able to see grub options to decide how to boot, I only can see it after I press control + alt + delete and reboot the computer, than it shows up.
