After this, update-grub needs to be run (which the above dpkg-reconfigure will do as well). I recovered it by editing /etc/default/grub to contain GRUB_TERMINAL=console, GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=menu, and GRUB_TIMEOUT=10. I fixed Failed to Set MokListRT: Invalid Parameter by following (a KDE Neon adapted version of) Shibiwan's answer on Ubuntu 20.04 Failed to Set MokListRT: Invallid Parameter.Doing this might have interacted with the effectiveness of my fix:

I saw two more boot-level issues after the upgrade and I fixed them too. Under Brightness, use the slider to raise or lower the brightness of your built-in display. In System Display settings, scroll down to the Brightness & Color section. When it opens, click System in the sidebar, then select Display. What else I did (may have interacted with the above fix) First, launch Settings by pressing Windows+i on your keyboard. Both were applied before on my machine and remained active after the upgrade, so not related.

Also, MacBook Air 3,2 by default may fail to boot usable graphics altogether in Nvidia drivers, which is fixed by setting certain PCI-E registers in grub as per Proprietary NVidia drivers with EFI on Mac, to prevent overheating.
#HP KEYBOARD BRIGHTNESS CONTROL HOW TO#
I tried a bunch of key combination with the fn key + the f keys and I found out how to raise the volume up and down (fn+f11 or f12) but not brightness. In particular, you need to add X-related device option settings EnableBrightnessControl=1 as per Brightness not working after installing NVIDIA driver. 2 My external keyboard doesnt have the brightness key but it comes with an fn button. Note that Nvidia drivers on MacBook Air 3,2 have a whole set of other, unrelated issues, some specifically related to brightness control.


For me, the problem was solved by simply rebuilding the initrd another time after booting into the new kernel: sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-5.4.0-54-generic
