You probably need to install GNOME 1.4 desktop from a compatibility
repository:

ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/repositories/GNOME:/GNOME1/openSUSE_10.2/i586

for gnome-config you need to install the package

gnome-libs-devel

Well, it's quite a complicated work. What exact program are you talking
about, probably we can help to port it to GNOME2 quickly.
