X error -- Cannot open keyboard (Not a directory)

Hello all,
I downloaded the pre-installed image (May 2013 version) and could run it with no problem on Virtualbox 4.1 (on Trisquel GNU/Linux 6). But If I upgrade the OS I won't be able to initiate X by using either '# startx' or '# startxfce4' and the following error message is shown:
...
Initializing built-in extension XFree86-DGA
Loading extension GLX
cannot open keyboard (Not a directory).

    
Here is the Xorg.log:
