Joseph Salisbury: I should add another piece of information, perhaps.

When I hold SHIFT key down during boot, the trackpad is not recognised
any longer!  In fact, the mouse pointer is not visible on the screen.

However, the above behaviour occurs only when the bluetooth receiver of
my Microsoft wireless mouse is plugged into a USB port prior to the
boot.  Without the receiver plugged in, holding SHIFT key down during
the boot process has no adverse effect -- Ubuntu does recognise the
trackpad, and the mouse pointer is visible.

This may, of course, be unrelated as well!

Title:
  GRUB boot menu does not appear

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When (re)booting, the GRUB boot menu does not appear.  Instead, a
  black rectangle - where the boot menu should otherwise appear - is
  displayed.

  A picture is attached herewith.  It shows the said black rectangle.
  Please excuse the glossy screen, and the consequent poor visibility.
  The black rectangle is clearly visible in the left-bottom corner of
  the first picture.

  The absence of a boot menu makes it virtually impossible for me to try
  any other kernel, pass boot options, etc.
