Okay, this is late. I see you're using Apache as your transaction
engine, you're using SUSE, and you're using an old version of
Subversion. Sounds frightfully familiar. We use to have a similar
setup.

Are your repositories read/writable by the HTTP process? On SUSE,
these have to be read/writable by user 'wwwrun'. All files under your
repository directory need to be owned and read/writable by "wwwrun".

We had similar issues where files and directories were suddenly owned
by "root". We never traced down the issue, but we moved over to Redhat
and updated Subversion server to the most recent copy.
