I think that the problem is /linux/dvb/frontend.h version in 
linux-headers-2.6.24-19-generic sources.

Yes, as Amando already noted, the problem is because of parameter handling in 
earlier DVB API versions. 

Unfortunatelly, the driver required version 5.0  DVB API or newer.

You have to update your kernel's DVB subsystem to 5.0 or newer to get driver 
compiled. Or do some local source "cooking" like adding necessary defines from 
newer headers or so. I would recommend to update linux DVB core, it is simpler 
and works pretty good.
Or switch to some newer kernel, which has version 5 API included already.

You can check if kernel has version 5.0 or newer DVB API included by checking 
include/linux/dvb/version.h:

#define DVB_API_VERSION 5
