Bug Description
When I shutdown my computer I see displayed all keystrokes that I have entered in terminal. This includes passwords and passphrases etc.
It's as though there is a keylogger recording what I type and then displaying that on shutdown.
I am running saucy up to date including the Mir ppa.
