First, you're using an ancient version.
Second, there are known deficits with the svn handler, better use pysvn.
Third, I got it working with http:// urls (apart from initial problems with 
password, which is gathered from the console, e.g. run eric from xterm, 
setup initial repo, and type in the pw in xterm...). pysvn doesn't suffer 
from this.

Good luck,
Pete
