You're using OpenSuse? I don't, but IIRC (what I'm *really* not sure about!)
I've heared rumours that their repositories deliver broken Gambas...

But do you actually Print something in your program? The white window could
be your terminal which stays white because your program doesn't do anything?

About the svn compilation: 20 minutes sounds familiar. The problems are
strange, though[*]. Could you send us the build logs as described here[0]?

Regards,
Tobi

[*] Not that there are some but *what* problems is strange. I don't see any
    reason-indicating similarity between them.
