Ah, right. Somehow misread the line above.
kdesvn uses the file monitoring classes from KDE, which internally tries
to use inotify first, if that fails fam|gamin (where gamin is just an
alternative, improved drop-in replacement of fam) and as a last resort
polling.
For fam|gamin to work, you either have to have the fam or gamin package
installed.
When you start kdesvn from the console, do you get output like this:
kdesvn: Name: cFactory
kdesvn: Appname = kdesvn

Please try with a fresh user account (and a default configuration) to
eliminate any possible side effect.
