Use the search function. Hit the "/" key when you are in menuconfig. How's that for an idea? You can also grep your .config file just to make sure you have the term correct. Things change a lot in kernels.

I just checked my config file and I have it set to "y" here.

pfred1@buck:/boot$ grep -i cmos config-2.6.320
CONFIG_GENERIC_CMOS_UPDATE=y

So I'll just close by saying, it works here :)
