When trying to boot normally from grub I get a black screen when it should be showing me the password field for my boot partition. Entering the password anyway does not boot Ubuntu.

When I delete quiet splash from the boot options then the last line I can see is about EHCI, but no errors are visible. At that point the boot process hangs and the only thing that I can do is reboot with CTRL+ALT+DEL.

Booting with the recovery mode works as expected. The dialog asking for the root partition password appears and everything works as expected after I select the resume option twice.

I tried running boot repair and get this paste from it: http://paste2.org/CVcxaMpp

The BIOS is set to boot from the correct disk /dev/sda

I have recently upgraded my graphic card from an old nvidia to a newer nvidia card, but I am not sure that the problems started at that point.

I have tried to swap my keyboard and mouse before booting to rule out that they are the problem. This didn't change anything.

I have tried to disconnect all disks besides the main ubuntu disk, but that didn't help either.

Changing the boot options from quiet splash to nomodeset and adding a delay to /etc/init.d/sddm

# Wait for plymouth if running
[ -x /bin/plymouth ] && /bin/plymouth quit
sleep 2
call do_start_cmd

just let me boot almost normal. Doing only one of these does not work. Unfortunately I don't get a nice looking boot process when I remove quiet splash.
