No video during boot between grub selection and X welcome
I'm running Ubuntu Bionic on a machine with a GTX 750 Ti (with nvidia driver) and no onboard video (there's a port on the motherboard, but my Xeon has no iGPU). When I installed Ubuntu I was using an HDMI cable from the GPU but I switched to DisplayPort when I got a new monitor.
Since switching video ports, I haven't had any video during boot, up until the X welcome / login screen, and sometimes a split second of text output appears prior to this. Setting GRUB_MODE=terminal in /etc/default/grub now displays the OS selection on screen, but after selecting Ubuntu the screen blanks.
Do I have to configure what video port to use for boot progress display?

Not sure but my first instinct would be to reinstallgruband see if it loads new video drivers. egsudo grub-install /dev/sda
