[XeTeX] Beamer and Hyperref in xelatex

[snvv]

Hello and thank you for help,

I have attached five files.
1. The tex & PDF of a hyperref test. The output is the expected.
    The hyper reference to a site works. There are all inf in the properties 
section of the PDF file, and finally when you open the file it goes directly 
in presentation mode.
2. The beamer file where the problem is obvious in comparison to the hyperreff 
file. In this case I included and the log file

Regards
sn

Yes you are correct. It wasn't minimal. 
I have create two new minimal files that will clarify things.
This is the first time that open a log file.
The only strange comment are :
1.<<
Package hyperref Warning: Option `pdfpagelabels' is turned off
(hyperref)                because \thepage is undefined.

Hyperref stopped early
)
*hyperref using default driver hdvips* 
>>

2.<<
Package hyperref Warning: Unexpected value `true pdftitle'
(hyperref)                of option `colorlinks' instead of
(hyperref)                `true' or 'false' on input line 20.

I have attached the file for your reference.

In the past it didn't compiled the file (I think the moderncv class) with 
utf8. In this case it compiles but it gives the following warning 
"beamer-example.tex:0: ***************************(ucs) You seem to have 
loaded inputencoding utf8(ucs) (LaTeX kernel UTF-8) instead of utf8x (ucs.sty 
UTF-8)."
