Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

When entering the password for sudo, the cursor doesn't move, asterisks don't show, etc. Solutions:

1. Asterisks should Show when entering the password
2. Gnome-Terminal should tell the user when first opening terminal that the sudo command doesn't offer password display/etc. when typing.
