I switched from ubuntu/Debian to Fedora a while back.. I think I still
have Mint on my laptop.
your ubuntu shows the grub version 2.02~beta2, fedora 22 does not.

my fedora dnf list shows:
# dnf list|grep grub2
grub2.x86_64                             1:2.02-0.16.fc22

I can't recall if mine has a border, but it seems to me my grub2 menu
looks more like your ubuntu menu..
if you boot from ubuntu & do mkconfig & grub2-install it will create a
new grub with ubuntu being the default.. if that version looks better to
you:)
