I'm not totally sure, but it sounds to me like it's not a Linux
binary. Did you get a source package that you had to compile
yourself, or was it a "pre-compiled" binary package?
If it was a binary package that you downloaded perhaps if you could
find the source package and compile that.
Alternatively to that you could try the Linux DooM that I use
(lxdoom). You should be able to find it on freshmeat [1].
What I like about lxdoom is that it runs both in X or in console and
works with DooM I, II, Final, TNT, Plutonia. And will run 99% of your
pwads.
