I recently updated my gentoo-sources from 2.6.12-r10 to 2.6.15-r5 and when i run make menuconfig it shows in the top left corner Linux Kernel 2.6.12-r10.

Do I have to load a different .config file or something?

No, you are probably doing
Code:

cd /usr/src/linux
make menuconfig

But that "linux" is not a directory, but a symlink pointing to one of the source trees under /usr/src, in this case, since the kernel installs stotted, you should have the previous sources there still, and, if you did not, you need to erase the "linux" symlink and point it to the new kernel.

So
Code:

cd /usr/src
rm linux
ln -s <insert here the updated tree> linux
cd linux
make menuconfig
