Hi, I *think* the problem is that it is not finding the .config file from building the kernel - 2.6.24.19. If you look in the /boot directory ubuntu installs the .config file when it installs the kernel. However it will be called something like config-2.6.24-19-server. Copy the file to /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/.config and try again.
Hope this helps
Cheers Paul
