AFAIK too, in Ubuntu and its derivatives, kernel related packages are
likely named "linux-image".

So maybe you could try that name prefix too.... a hint: since you use
openSuse, try to use zypper "search" facility, so that you could
reduce mistakes

most of the times, anything named with "kernel" and "devel" usually
means a package that contains the kernel headers file and others
needed to compile a kernel module or anything related to kernel stuff.
it's a stripped down version of full blown kernel source.

kernel base? kernel default? no clear hint there...
