yesterday I deleted the disk of the virtual machine and I already have enough space, the error persists. the first error message before logging in is: ModemManager [2001]: <info> Could not check support for device '/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.4/0000:01:00.2/0000: 02: 00.0 / 0000: 03: 00.0 ': not supported by any plugin
you can see it in this extract of everything.log

thanks for answering
edit: I deleted virtualbox, and now when it starts it just leaves the screen black. I can access another tty console and log in, but startx gives the same error.
I tried to reinstall xorg-server and it tells me that there is no space, I lost patience and an important file. I think I'm going to reinstall and reconfigure
