I can't see anything odd there - maybe someone else can, or maybe it was a dead end. Let's try another thing. The fact that you can enter a guest session indicates that the problem lies somewhere in your home directory.

Re: [Touch-packages] [Bug 1358479] Re: after typing password on login screen, login screen returns
Dear Gunnar, I am very sorry, but obviously not well versed with such issues - Ubuntu was just too reliable so far :-) I am in the terminal and did first install the apport program. Now I am told that the system waits to hear from launchpad ... I am logged into launchpad from another computer but that doesn't authorize the program. What do I have to do? Thanks so much again!
