In the old-style driver the corresponding code is (dvb.c):
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < 0x020405
        if( 0 > (video_register_device(&dvb->video, VFL_TYPE_GRABBER))) {
#else
        if( 0 > (video_register_device(&dvb->video, VFL_TYPE_GRABBER, -1))) {
#endif
You may try and simply remove the last parameter. This should fix this error.
If you are lucky, this is the only problem due to your old kernel...

As you can see above, the number of parameters has changed in kernel 2.4.5.
Perhaps you should consider switching to a newer kernel. I'm using 2.4.19.
