error: no server is specified. error: no suitable video mode found. /dev/sdc2: clean, 259918/15630336 files.

After this error screen for few seconds it automatically boots into Ubuntu.

Need Help :)

Nothing to worry about especially if it boots fine and loads your graphical environment. It’s just a grub warning message because grub doesnt play well with (presumably) nvidia. You could probably make some tweaks to remove the error but there’s really no reason to bother.

As it boots fine (and changing into wayland later) I think you can just ignore it.

It’s not exactly a bug. It’s just that Linux is extremely verbose and often spits out debug messages for things that are not relevant to your system.

No, it is a bug (I think) because GRUB should display in native resolution and because of a bug can’t figure it out and displays in 800x600. It is however only cosmetic.

Let me guess, you have an Nvidia card?

I had this error several times (also cases where it would not boot afterwards). It usually appears after installing Nvidia drivers.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
