When I try to run ADoM from the console I get this error message:

$ ./adom

Has anyone successfully played it on their system? I had to download it from the official site since I couldn't find it in any repository...

I played, it, and I got the same message. If you're playing in a Terminal window, you have to resize it to make it larger than 25 characters by 77 characters. When you drag the corner, a box will pop up showing you how large it currently is. I think the default is 24x80.
