Yes, you need to create the user svn. The detailed information is in /usr/share/doc/packages/subversion/README.SuSE (most packages have a README.SuSE with instructions on how to get things up and running)

section 2 in that file reads

2. create svn user/group for svnserve

subversion repositories can be served either via http, or via the svnserve
daemon and a special network protocol. svnserve should not run as root user.
The startup script rcsvnserve expects a user/group named 'svn', configureable
via /etc/sysconfig/svnserve.
But this user/group must be created before first use:

        useradd svn
        groupadd svn

You should have a look at README.SuSE, it contains more relevant information

Thanks, I did that; and the svnserver is running. I followed the instructions (in README.SuSE) concerning apache2 as well, but I'm not sure how well that's gone.

Still, the server's running and that should get me started. If I need help later, with Apache, I'll post again. In the meantime, my grateful thanks once again.
