Public bug reported: I believe this package is required for optimum performance of AMD64 based systems. I have an Desktop and Laptop that is AMD64 based. I experienced boot errors "AMD micro code not loaded" or something similar. On both systems install of this package removed the boot errors. I also believe install of this package helped the install problems with the AMD Fglrx Graphics drivers.
