Failed to create OpenGL context ...

Probably the lack of OpenGL (required for openshot's GUI) and most probably too little video memory, too.
I wouldn't call the AST1150 a video card, it barely manages to give you a picture on your monitor, nothing more.
You are misusing your hardware for the wrong purpose. Get a proper videocard, no powerhouse needed though.

'Unfortunately' my FreeBSD and shotcut is on a Xeon slim racket server that doesn't seem to accept a cumbersome video card.
Does anyone know of a smaller video card?
Ciao

Get riser card which turns the slot 90 degrees. Similar to this:
