SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE / OBSERVED RESULT
Can't give precise information on that.
All I can say is:
I managed to install the nvidia-drivers 430 on my Lenovo P52 with an external Thunderbolt screen (ASUS MB16AC) connected.
When I rebooted, the login dialog on the external screen was preselected (not the laptop screen, which is the main screen).
When I now enter the password in the password dialog on the main screen, *the entered password is not censored*!
It's visible in cleartext.

EXPECTED RESULT
Password should be censored!
