Your virtual machine doesn't access to your real graphic card !!

VirtualBox will show to your VM another graphic card. You'd better the vesa 
driver for the VM graphic card.

# pacman -S xf86-video-vesa

in your XF86Config, change the device sectino to

Section "Device"
    Identifier     "Device0"
    Driver         "vesa"
EndSection

You should have a working X server after that.
