I have to Press and Hold the power button after Dual-Booting Ubuntu
I successfully dual booted my Lenovo idea-pad 510 with Ubuntu, which was previously using Windows 10.
Now everytime I turn on my laptop, I have to press and hold the power button for about 10 seconds, which opens up the boot menu. In there, I have to go to the boot options and select Windows or Ubuntu to boot up. What could be the problem?

Does it make a difference if you were running windows or Ubuntu before shutting down?

@Hamza Khan you may take a look at the firmware settings, maybe there are options like "extended power states" that you could fiddle around with. I think your problem is specific to your hardware. A brief google search showed that many lenovo users have similar problems, so you may get better answers in the lenovo community forums.
