This is also documented in am-utils bugzilla with more details:
https://bugzilla.am-utils.org/show_bug.cgi?id=612

In short, Linux kernel has started validating the fs_hostname field in 2.6.19 and amd-utils does stuff non-hostname things into it so it fails to work at
all by default.

Please read the other bug reports about this. This has already been reported and discussed in other bugs against this package, and on the am-utils mailing list. We have already disabled the locking in package -10, precisely to work around this problem. This is *not* a grave bug, because there is a workaround. I am using 6.1.5-10 quite successfully with 2.6.24 kernels.
