It looks to me like it is looking for the kernel source code and not finding it. Do you have a /usr/src/linux-2.6.0-1.109custom directory? If not, you might try installing the source code from your distribution.

Go http://flameeyes.web.ctonet.it to get a patch for lirc to make it work with kernels 2.6.x.

Hope this helps.

How do i install that?

Actually I don't know. I gave up trying to get it to work and went back to kernel 2.4.24.

There are lots of things that don't and won't compile on 2.6.x so 2.4.24 seems a more sensible choice ATM.
