This is soultion how to fix no splash screen in Ubuntu after nvidia proprietary driver installation.

Open your terminal and type

sudo apt-get install v86d

Then

sudo gedit /etc/default/grub

Find this line

#GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480

and chagne for this one (of course choose your resolution)

GRUB_GFXMODE=1440x900x24
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep

Save file and type in terminal

echo FRAMEBUFFER=y | sudo tee /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash
sudo update-initramfs -u
sudo update-grub2

It's worked for me in all Ubuntu versions.
