Error in starting Unity Desktop on Chromebook

Question

I installed Ubuntu and Unity Desktop on Asus Chromebook using Crouton. The Ubuntu part seemed to work. But when I started Unity Desktop (sudo startunity). It threw errors and failed to start. However, a week ago, I installed the same Ubuntu and Unity Desktop on a different Chromebook (Acer) and it worked fine. This is how I install and start unity desktop:

• download crouton from link on the webpage https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton
• copy crouton to /sur/local/bin and set the chmod bits.
• bash> sudo sh /usr/local/bin/crouton -t extension,keyboard,audio,unity
• bash> sudo startunity

I wonder how someone help me to find out what the problem is. I would very appreciate your help. I have the log message attached below the dash line.

Thanks,

Acyk
