You have been subscribed to a public bug: Binary package hint: xorg
After jaunty->karmic xubuntu upgrade within a virtualbox guest (without any virtualbox guest utilities installed), X is broken (and due to bug 431166, attempts to restart over and over forever). The likely culprit is that /etc/X11/xorg.conf is a 0 length file; indeed, removing the file completely causes X to start working again.
