You could just run 'svn --version' and it should tell you something
like...
--------------------------------------------------------------
...
The following repository access (RA) modules are available:

* ra_dav : Module for accessing a repository via WebDAV (DeltaV)
protocol.
  - handles 'http' scheme
  - handles 'https' scheme
...
--------------------------------------------------------------
in addition to the version info. Thats how you find out if the ra module
is installed.

> Google shows that there are mod_dav_svn_* rpm files on the net but none for Suse.
I would suggest downloading the source code and building it. Once thats done, you could
just use the mod_dav_svn module from there.

Dont know much of Suse to comment about the availability.

Did that answer your question?

Madan.
