Well, for 32bit there is kernel-desktop-debuginfo 3.7.10-1.1 in the debug repo, you have to enable that in YaST->Software Repositories first since it is not enabled by default.

For the updated kernel-desktop versions (and 64bit) those are missing though.
You should open a bugreport at http://bugzilla.novell.com/ about this (same login/password as here).
Although I think I already saw one, but I can’t seem to find it now.

Found it, it’s here:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=824971

So apparently you’ll have to wait until the next kernel update (if you’re not running a 32bit system that is).
Or install the latest kernel from this repo: Index of /repositories/Kernel:/stable/standard
In that repo all corresponding debuginfo packages are available as well.
