I don't know if this will fix your issue, but making sure that display-manger is actually aliased to something may provide a solution.
How?
Forgot to mention, the only message I get regarding kdm3 on boot is:
# journalctl -b | grep kdm Aug 27 02:18:25 vlleap15 display-manager[1072]: Starting service kdm..done
<snipped duplicate entries stuff from suse's xdg sourcing of files>
Could not be happier with how kdm is working on 15 - just brilliantly.
If you do find out this is a 4.16+ issue, let's get to the kdm source and git it tweaked so it doesn't have problems going forward. We will need to find a kernel guy that knows what has changed in that part of the world to work with out. Hopefully, that won't be needed.
