Advanced Design System officially support RHel 5, RHel 6 and Solaris 10. My desktop use ARCH Linux, which is not listed in the support platforms. So some steps have to taken before get ADS to work. Here I summarize my walkaround on installing ADS on Arch Linux platform which it may or may not be possible to applied on any distribution other than Arch.

Installation Steps:

1. Install ADS on your PC using SETUP.sh shell script. Keep in mind that Install ADS on a path with no white-space or special character, although ADS setup does not complain, this cause fatal error in ADS runtime.
2. From try and error it seems that ADS use Qt 4.8.6 which is have minor changes that make it incompatible with Qt4 provided from arch repository. Fortunately Qt 4.8.6 is packed inside ADS path, so it can be readily used by adding it to LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.
   Edit LD_LIBRARY_PATH in <ADS_PATH>/bin/ads

   LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HPEESOF_DIR/lib/linux_x86_64:$HPEESOF_DIR/lib/linux_x86:$HPEESOF_DIR/adsptolemy/lib.linux_x86_64:$HPEESOF_DIR/SystemVue/2014.10/linux_x86_64/bin/MATLABScript/sys/os/glnxa64:$HPEESOF_DIR/adsptolemy/lib.linux_x86:$HPEESOF_DIR/SystemVue/2014.10/linux_x86_64/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

3. Create a duplicate from libXm.so.3 and rename it to libXm.so.4 in <ADS_PATH>/SystemVue/2014.10/linux_x86_64/bin/MATLABScript/sys/os/glnxa64. This may seems weird, so just to be clear out libXm is for Solaris platform (desktop environment). We create this file just to prevent from linking error which is not cause any further problem as while as the running platform is not Solaris.
4. Install  Dependencies which is needed by License ManagerADS software.

   sudo pacman -S lsb-release libxp
   yaourt ld-lsb
   yaourt ksh

5.  Run <ADS_PATH>/bin/ads

License Setup:

HostName: the computer name can be achieved by running following command

$uname -a 
 Linux Bijan-PC 4.4.7-1-lts #1 SMP Thu Apr 14 17:26:39 2016 x86_64 GNU/Linux

which is revealed that my HostName is Bijan-PC
There is no MAC Address need for Linux platform on the other hand ADS use so-called CPUID which generate based on your platform which can be used to get license file from KeySight Corporation. CPUID, MAC and HostID are all the same. note that HostID is different from HostName
