I have installed the linux-lowlatency kernel recently.
Setup of a DAW (MIDI support) was the reason to change from Fedora to Ubuntu.
After reboot uname shows that I am running the generic kernel.
There are 2 entries (normal and revovery) for the lowlatency kernel in
/boot/grub/grub.cfg
but the grub menu does not show up at boot time at all.
... and no - I do not want to buy Windows software like an answer else where to this question suggests

have you tried reconfiguring/re-installing grub?– Elder GeekFeb 6, 2016 at 16:01

Sometimes GRUB can be configure to not show at boot at automatically boot to first entry. Try holding the left shift button at start-up to make it show.– user323419Feb 6, 2016 at 19:13

To enable the grub menu to select the kernel, you have to comment the line in /etc/default/grub
#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
Then you have to run update-grub
and reboot and the grub menu should appear.
