So I think you need to provide more explanation.
By contrast, SDDM does return results. Neither does kde5. But 'kde plasma' returns hits for plasma-5. So again, I think you need to try harder to help yourself and others trying to help you. In Yast sysconfig, under displaymanager it says kdm4. BTW, this is a

What exactly do you mean by 'Yast sysconfig'? In my case, under System/'/etc/sysconfig/editor', under DISPLAYMANAGER it says 'lightdm'.
The info for that setting is:
File: /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager Possible Values: kdm, kdm3, kdm4, xdm, gdm, wdm, entrance, console or any value Not in my case. It says: Possible Values: kdm, xdm, gdm, wdm, entrance, console, lightdm, sddm or any value
So I guess you have indeed played around with something.
Since YaST doesn't find any hits for kdm4 for me, I suppose you probably have some repository enabled (i.e. not standard) that I don't.
Default Value: Description:
Here you can set the default Display manager (kdm/xdm/gdm/wdm/entrance/console). all changes in this file require a restart of the displaymanager
I don't know what else to tell you. I pasted exactly what was in that setting and the description that goes with it and once again, I have never changed that.
