Under Ubuntu 13.10 I had the similar issue with rstudio server, tried all different suggestions no work. Finally figured out this way:

1. sudo service rstudio-server stop
2. remove all rstudio related files (sudo find / -name "rstudio" | xargs sudo rm -r)
3. uninstall R: sudo apt-get remove r-base-core r-base r-base-dev
4. remove all R related files (sudo find / -name "R" | xargs sudo rm -r)
5. re-install R: sudo apt-get install r-base-core r-base r-base-dev
6. test R: making sure plot(cars) works in R, output a pdf file.
7. re-install R studio server: http://www.rstudio.com/ide/download/server
