Title:
  upgrade to Linux 4.15.0-48-generic crashes display on lenovo G500

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Last week my Lenovo G500 laptop running ubuntu 18.04 reported an
  available system update of about 180 MBs, which included a kernel
  version update. I installed it and following the reboot, the display
  hung with a purple screen with bands of random colored pixels across
  the screen.

  If I reboot and hold down SHIFT to get to GRUB, it presents the
  following choices under Advanced Options:

        Ubuntu, with Linux 4.15.0-48-generic
        Ubuntu, with Linux 4.15.0-48-generic (recovery mode)
        Ubuntu, with Linux 4.15.0-47-generic
        Ubuntu, with Linux 4.15.0-47-generic (recovery mode)

  If I select 4.15.0-48-generic, I get the display hang problem
  described above or other forms of display misbehavior (sometimes it
  flashes continuously, sometimes it just hangs at a black screen, its
  not consistent).

  If I select 4.15.0-47-generic, it boots up just fine to a completely
  usable desktop. Every time.

  I've tried running boot-repair. It reported that it had repaired GRUB,
  but the problem persists. So I don't think its a boot parameters
  problem. I conclude that the problem has something to do with the
  display driver in 4.15.0-48-generic that was not present in
  4.15.0-47-generic.
