The best would be to bisect the kernel between 3.12 and 3.13, but that
is of course going to take a lot of time (several hours at least).

I wonder why X displays this error after loading the _vesa_ driver (this
driver cannot possibly work and would normally be unloaded). What
happens if you create a minimal /etc/X11/xorg.conf like this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Section "Device"
Identifier "n"
Driver "nouveau"
EndSection
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Instead of nouveau you can also try modesetting and fbdev here, in order
of decreasing functionality.
Cheers,
Sven
