Thanks for you tip Adam, but there isn't such option in driconf.
I remember there used to be an option to enable that when it was disabled by default.And I doubt I can replace integrated GPU :), anyway, this graphics sucks and it was weak and insufficient since it existed but there are lots of computers (=netbooks) with this ancient HW and it is powerful enough for some internet browsing.

ARB_fragment_shader that tries to work but falls over on shaders that
are too complicated because the hardware simply doesn't support long
shader programs. But upstream decided to do that because the
alternative was users complaining that shaders didn't work at all...
So yeah, sorry that your GPU is terrible, maybe get a better one.
Alternatively there's driconf which lets you disable that, even at a
per-app granularity so you can see if that's what gnome-shell is
tripping over. (Note that you'll need to restart shell to make the
change take effect, either by logging out or doing Alt-F2 r)
Though none of this matters for Felix' case, since the 8xx series GPUs
(among their many many other flaws) don't have shader support at all.
Turns out hardware's gotten a lot more sophisticated in the intervening
13 years since that design...
