The attached .xsession-errors file doesn't look like the correct one, as you have started the fallback mode there (gnome-panel and notification-daemon etc). Please attach the one after starting gnome-shell. You probably need to switch to ALT+F1 and make a copy of this file before you start the fallback mode again. regarding screenshot: do you have a smartphone or camera? that would help too. My guess is, that it is related to the proprietary nvidia kernel driver. Michael -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
