UE4Editor not launching on Ubuntu 16.04, crashing at startup

I installed UE 4.13 using the documentation available online. All steps went fine. But when i cd’d into Engine/Binaries/Linux/ and tried to run UE4Editor . I got some errors and then it shut down. Can someone help me resolve this issue? Before that step i had no problem. I have ubuntu 16.04 and Nvidia grpahics card, latest graphics drivers from nvidia are installed.

So i had these errors. I am only giving the warning or errors, otherwise a lot was written that i guessed would be useless as it was in white color only. But let me know if more information is needed.
