Details:
Until yesterday I had a GTX 1050 Ti installed. Then I bought and installed GTX
1660 Ti and this is where the weird stuff began. When 1050 is installed
everything is OK. But with 1660 grub first look like the attached screenshot.
1 or 2 seconds pass and then the actual grub menu appears where I can choose
an operating system to boot.
I'm using Linux for 4 years and have never seen Bulgarian text in the grub
menu which is why this error puzzles me. On top of that it's looking for a
file extension 'gmo', not 'mo'.
In order to be sure in the error I removed the 1660 Ti and installed 1050 Ti
back into the computer, then booted the system. This error didn't show up. I
put back the 1660 Ti and the error returned. My best guess is that this is
some kind of a grub2 error but what causes it (other than changing video
cards) I have no idea.
Grub version is:
[rado@arch]: ~>$ search grub
core/grub 2:2.04-8 [installed]
P.S. I tried some crude fix which worked for a while. But only for a while. I
took the file uk.mo, renamed it to bg.gmo and put it back in
/boot/grub/locale. At first it seemed to work and the error didn't appear
anymore but then somehing else happened - the grub menu explanation (the one
that describes how to use arrows to select an OS) became in something similar
to a Russian language but not exactly Russian. So I removed the fake bg.gmo
file, the description reverted back to English and the error about missing
bg.gmo file returned.
My system information just in case you need it:
