What user does your web server run as? Does that user have write
permission to the directory where you are trying to create the repo:

/home/projeler/kforge/var/project_data/obsm/svn

If not make sure it does. Recall step 5 from quickstart installation
instructions (in INSTALL):

{{{
  5. Final touches:
     * set file permissions/ownerships (www-user is the user under which
the web
     server runs)
       $ chown -R <www-user>:<www-user> <base>
}}}

(see also the full explanation in the full instructions)

I am not sure I entirely understand your question here. Do you wish to
change the theme or is the problem that the *default* theme is not
rendering correctly?
