I have recompiled the 'mesa' package in OpenEmbedded, added the r600 and radeonsi drivers. This is what is now in /usr/lib/dri:

i915_dri.so
i965_dri.so
kms_swrast_dri.so
nouveau_dri.so
nouveau_vieux_dri.so
r200_dri.so
r300_dri.so
r600_dri.so
radeon_dri.so
radeonsi_dri.so
swrast_dri.so
virtio_gpu_dri.so
vmwgfx_dri.so

Getting closer to releasing Easy 3.1.11!
