Hi. I just built emission-sources from aur package. How do I get ati-fglrx and madwifi to build against this custom kernel using pacman?

Grab the PKGBUILD files for ati-fglrx or madwifi from abs (or cvs), change the name (to, say, ati-fglrx-emission and madwifi-emission) and change the kernel version variable (_kernver I think) to the output of uname -r when you're running the emission kernel. Then run makepkg, and you've got a shiny new package.
