This looks like a pure gnome-shell crashing, nothing about your VGA 3D (in)capabilities :-) Lots of applet plugins fail to load and also adwaita theme seems to be missing (for the Adwaita theme, ensure you have installed "gnome-themes- standard" package).

I don't know where to go from here :-? Take a look into gnome-shell bugs and/or wait for a fix.
