AMD cuddles with Linux
AMD apparently wants to set up a research group in Dresden not only to optimize Linux for its own processors, but also to integrate the requirements of the open operating system in the development process for future processor generations.
According to the job description for the tool developer, this person will not only be developing Linux tools for AMD processors, but also helping optimize processors for Linux http://www.heise.de/english/newsticker/news/72169

AMD's Linux research in Dresden
AMD plans to establish a global centre of competence for operating systems in Dresden. At the Operating System Research Center (OSRC), a team directed by Chris Schläger will be working with AMD's processor designers to "optimize future generations of AMD microprocessors for the requirements of modern operating systems."
Up to the beginning of the year, Schläger was the development head at Novell for SuSE Linux.

CRN: To what extent is AMD's Linux business growing?
RICHARD: Linux has always been a stronghold for us. People using Linux in the computer and server space are unconventional thinkers. So that often drives them to be AMD partners. One area Linux is well-known for is high performance, and the Opteron is [big] in HPC and large clusters. We're continuing to invest in that space. We recently opened a software development center in Redmond, Wash., and we continue to work closely with Red Hat and [Novell] SUSE and enhancements for Barcelona. You'll see in the next release of the Red Hat OS that there is optimization around the AMD platform, which is a first. http://www.crn.com/hardware/197007770?pgno=3
