Which USB and HDMI adapters/cables did you use?
The dock has micro hdmi male, and micro usb b male. If it was female
for both, you could go to about any computer or electronics store and
get what you need. This summer I ended up making my micro hdmi to hdmi
cable, but it was hard to solder, with the shields and all and it kept
flickering. So I ordered the micro hdmi female to hdmi male adapter
from china. The rest I found in the US (my parts bin or
the local
computer shop).
I've posted a bunch of pictures with the proper nomenclature on all
the adapters and cables:

I know very little about HDMI/DVI video but I'm
wondering how hard it
would be to make an IOB6120 squirt out something DVI-esque (it
normally does VGA out while emulating a terminal for the SBC6120).
There is the question of handshake and all that, so you do need a chip
to handle that for you. You could also buy an adapter:

That's about as small as they get (yet still quite large). Not cheap, however.
