This is almost certainly related to the removal/installation of nvidia
and friends. I know I've broken my machine more than once in the same
way (misconfigured GL libraries) using the nvidia installer. So we only
recommend and support installing via .debs
We probably need to assign this bug to a different project and it's
probably not a gnome-shell problem at all. Especially since you're
looking at X log messages and Xorg needs to be running before gnome-
shell, if at all. It's just not clear which Ubuntu source package, if
any, could be fixed for this.

Title:
wayland session in Ubuntu 18.04 chooses vmware driver on intel
hardware
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I upgraded to 18.04 and I no longer get an option to run a wayland
session (17.10 offered both the default ubuntu wayland session and
xorg on this laptop).
gnome-shell runs under the llvmpipe driver. (Unity used to run when I
first upgraded, but now gnome-shell is the only option because the gdm
login screen offers no login options.)
The upgrade did force me to remove bumblebee and nvidia, but
afterwards I manually reinstalled bumblebee and nvidia-387 and reset
to using intel via prime-select (installing nvidia changes some of the
symlinks so that gnome-shell no longer boots, but "sudo prime-select
intel" fixes this).
The nvidia-387 modules are blacklisted in /etc/modprobe.d, and
bumblebee isn't reporting any errors - bbswitch reports that the
nvidia card is off, so I don't think it's an issue with hybrid
graphics. (primusrun does work, as well.)
Attached are the mutter logs that I generated via the environment
variables mentioned in
