Title:
  Login screen shows corrupted fragments of prior user's session on
  dual-screen setup with proprietary nvidia drivers

Status in NVIDIA Drivers Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  See attached photo.  The login screen is showing screen fragments of
  the prior user's session -- which could contain sensitive or private
  information.  This happens only very rarely, after prolonged multi-day
  use.  Logging in and out gets rid of the problem.
