We can't read your mind to know what kind of errors you are seeing. Show  
us!

You might want to check if OpenOffice is built with GNOME 2.10.x or  
2.12.x. You need to ask whomever built those packages. If OpenOffice built  
with GNOME 2.10, then I don't think it will run in new ports stuff like  
GTK 2.8.x, GNOME 2.12.x and etc.
