Title:
  Boot fails: black screen after GRUB, no login

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-346 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After upgrading from 14.10 to 15.04, I can no longer boot my machine
  normally. After the GRUB screen, some things load as they should, then
  the screen turns all black (no cursor, and no backlight), and though I
  hear the Ubuntu login "drum sound" played, the screen is just black
  and no login dialog is shown.

  If I boot into recovery mode, then select "resume normal boot", I do
  not experience this issue, and the login screen is shown, and I can
  login and use the machine, although the resolution of the screen is
  not good, and I can't select others from the control center.
