Noob request here.



Recently when turning on my laptop (running Ubuntu 18.04) just for a second a white screen flashes on with the phrase 'Index' and a number of links, before it boots into usual operation. This previously never happened and I'd be grateful for any insight or advice on this.



Thanks
