Bug Description

Binary package hint: cryptsetup

cryptsetup version 2:1.1.0~rc2-1ubuntu13

i have removed "splash quiet" from the grub config, so i get the text interface instead of plymouth (cryptroot lines 291-296).
the "enter password" etc message is displayed, and for every character i enter it is displayed again (plus an asterisk (*)).

this is only a cosmetic problem, the password is read correctly and the dm-crypt device mapping is working too.
