My guess is that if you are using emacs compiled with gtk toolkit (it
is the default) it will ignore the x-resources .

Try emacs compiled with the lucid toolkit.  You can look in your
distro for an emacs-lucid package or compile it yourself with

./configure --with-x-toolkit=lucid  ; make ; sudo make install

lucid will cooperate with x-resources.  If that doesn't work try
replacing gnome with a simple window manager, not a desktop
environment.  Gnome (also possibly kde and other desktops) may have
dropped x-resources usage.
