Indeed - the Oaktrail processors don't have SDVO support. E6xx happens
to be very similar to Oaktrail so the LVDS works. No idea about HDMI.

There is an Intel driver with open kernel code and proprietary userspace
for the Imagination 3D engine (EMGD) although only for an out of
maintenance Fedora and for Meego and in both cases for ancient kernels.

The fully open driver is built by extracting the relevant information and
code from these releases.

http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/embedded/hwsw/software/emgd#download


If you unpack that it contains a tar ball which you can unpack which
contains the driver.

emgd/pal/sdvo 

looks kind of promising.
