Hi all!
Same here, on my Dell N5110 with Core i5 Intel HD3000 + GT525M.
After upgrade to Ubuntu 15.10 Stable with nvidia-355 the problem is solved.
Black screen no longer appears, without applying script, which posted
twisted_tits above.

The problem is not only on nVidia cards!
The same thing (black screen on Ubuntu) happens on AMD ATI cards also!
