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. So
let's move it away temporarily:

sudo mv /home/tapjz /home/tapjz.bak
sudo cp -rT /etc/skel/ /home/tapjz
sudo chown -R tapjz:tapjz /home/tapjz

Then go back with Ctrl+Alt+F7 and try to log in.

Title:
  after typing password on login screen, login screen returns

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I am running a dual boot system.
  Installed trusty (amd64) from usb stick - without formatting the install partition. 
  Upon restart the login screen appears all right. But after typing the password, the screen turns black for a split second - and the login screen appears again - without any comments.
  If I type a wrong password, I get the incorrect password message on the login screen.
  If I choose the guest login, unity appears and is perfectly operational.
  What can I do?
  Thanks so much!
  Hans
