Okay, I figured out grub, I think. It looks like it was installing to the wrong hard-drive. In order to get any grub changes to take effect, I have to issue: "sudo grub-install /dev/sda" and then also "sudo update-grub". Additionally, I added "splash quiet" back in and there is no problem with the display now. Maybe it was just because I was booting into the wrong kernel version from grub. Problem resolved, I guess, but it would've been nice not to have had to spend the whole morning getting this upgrade up and running again. Now on to my other computer, which no longer responds to keyboard or mouse input after its upgrade.
