Here's the critical part of the log:

kwin(4974) KWin::EffectsHandlerImpl::loadEffect:
EffectsHandler::loadEffect : Effect  "kwin4_effect_blur"  is not supported
kwin(4974) KWin::EffectsHandlerImpl::loadEffect:
EffectsHandler::loadEffect : Effect  "kwin4_effect_screenshot"  is not
supported
WARNING: Application calling GLX 1.3 function "glXCreatePixmap" when GLX
1.3 is not supported!  This is an application bug!
WARNING: Application calling GLX 1.3 function "glXQueryDrawable" when
GLX 1.3 is not supported!  This is an application bug!
kwin: Fatal IO error: client killed

Looks like indeed the 3d detection is causing the crash / failure :(

If you edit .kde4/share/config/kwinrc you can manually disable it:

Enabled=false
