I had my display(s) go bananas similarly and I'm using an old-skool ATI card.

What worked for me was adding the line

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nomodeset"
to this file
Code:
/etc/default/grub
YMMV

Edit: you must run
Code:
sudo update grub
after editing your grub file

Code:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nomodeset"
