I don't see your problem:

S | Name          | Typ   | Version      | Arch   | Repository
--+---------------+-------+--------------+--------+-----------------------
i | kernel-source | Paket | 2.6.27.7-9.1 | x86_64 | Haupt-Repository (OSS)
v | kernel-source | Paket | 2.6.27.7-9.1 | i586   | Haupt-Repository (OSS)

12 | repo_1                           | Haupt-Repository (OSS)
       | Ja        | Ja            | 99        | yast2  |

So there are the kenels for both Architectures available.
