The kernel config is stored in
target/device/Gumstix/basix-connex/linux.config
or
target/device/Gumstix/verdex/linux.config
depending on your board.  And copied to the kernel
source .config file, so it would overwrite any modifications
you've made there.  Copy your updated config over to that file
if you want your changes preserved.

Also, you may need to run  'make linuxclean'  to clean the kernel
sources, so when you run 'make' again, it will rebuild the kernel.
