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
