Emilio,
OK, before we get any deeper, have you checked to see if Suse has a
newer package for Octave? This may fix everything, as Dmitri elluded to,
and would definitely be easier. I would suggest recompile, but as a
Linux beginner, that may be a little more than you want to swallow right
now, not to mention you would probably have the same problem that your
having now. (Don't worry about that last line.)
When you tried to run /sbin/ldconfig, did it specifically say
"command not found"? Or did it not work? The reason I ask is that
probably every Linux distribution has that command.
OK, I know you said your new at Linux, so first, do you understand what
I mean when I say you need to be the "root" user to execute that
command? (If not, at the command line type 'su', and then your
administrator password. This should get you to the prompt which ends
with a pound sign, '#')
So if you got that far, ldconfig should be in one of these places:
/sbin/ldconfig
or
/usr/sbin/ldconfig
After that, you should be OK, get back to me if you're still having
problems.

hi JD
first of all thanks for your help. i read your message and i have to say i
didnt get to solve the problem. after this atempt and with the information of
your coment i made a search in the internet and found the next text:
"Problem: Trying to run octave gives:
appc63:/etc # octave
octave: error while loading shared libraries: liboctinterp.so: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
Solution:
add /usr/lib/octave-2.1.49 to your /etc/ld.so.conf file then do:
/sbin/ldconfig"
and of course i tried it , but at the end i got an error when i tried to do
ldconfig. it seems this comand does not exist on my computer (?)
