Yeah, make sure you have a good grasp on where the borders of a vault are as well. I was in a moat area or some other kind of intermediate place between the dungeon and a vault once and didn't realize that area was also protected from *destruct* and bit the dust to Chaos hounds once. On the upside, themed levels are not protected and you can *destruct* away.
I had the most wonderful dream last night. I found a staff that increased the sides of the damage dice on weapons. I activated it several times and got Calris up to 3d21. It worked like recharging or remove curse... if it failed to enchant properly the item would be destroyed. Every time I went to use it I was shown the percentage chance it would work. The staff was not named, but I think it would've been called the Staff of Wishful Thinking.
I guess my subconscious is also obsessed with honking nasty weapons. I like big damage die and I cannot lie...You are on something strangeComment

You'll always find enough speed eventually in a game, but a really big damage dice weapon is a rarity. You may or may not know that criticals in O-based combat increase the number of dice of your weapon for that attack - therefore bigger dice makes a huge difference. That's why Forasgil at 1d12 is such a powerful early weapon.Comment

I was trying to compile 1.1 under Debian (chroot in Maemo 5). Configure and make didn't throw any error messages. But I couln't get both the x11 and the SDL modes working.
In x11, the error is
Code:Couldn't load requested font. (8x16x).
Code:ALSA lib dlmisc.c:236:(snd1_dlobj_cache_get) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_alsa_dsp.so ./faangband: Couldn't open mixer: No available audio device ./faangband: Failed to load sound config ./faangband: Cannot create the '/root//.angband/FAangband/scores/scores.raw' file! ./faangband: The 'lib' directory is probably missing or broken. ./faangband: Perhaps the archive was not extracted correctly. ./faangband: See the 'README' file for more information. ./faangband: Fatal Error.
Don't get discouraged by the random question when registering for the forums, my friend.Comment

The font is read either from the x11-settings.prf file in the lib/user directory or (more probably) the ~/.angband/FAangband directory, or the environment variable ANGBAND_X11_FONT_0 - I'm guessing the former
In SDL, the first screen loads, but when I pressed any key to enter the character dialogs the game quit and show this error
Code:ALSA lib dlmisc.c:236:(snd1_dlobj_cache_get) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_alsa_dsp.so ./faangband: Couldn't open mixer: No available audio device ./faangband: Failed to load sound config ./faangband: Cannot create the '/root//.angband/FAangband/scores/scores.raw' file! ./faangband: The 'lib' directory is probably missing or broken. ./faangband: Perhaps the archive was not extracted correctly. ./faangband: See the 'README' file for more information. ./faangband: Fatal Error.

How does one use the Rod of Portals? It asks you to choose a location and then when you pick a square...nothing. What am I doing wrong? ThanksComment

On zapping, you should get to choose a grid to teleport to. It can't be too far away, and must be passable and not contain a monster or be in a vault. It can fail randomly, but on any failure you should get a failure message and be teleported.One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
