not sure what you mean "hdmi to dvi setup". There is no dvi port on my monitor just hdmi. This is a minimal build of Ubuntu, no desktop and yet unable to get the terminal/cli on the monitor. On the RPI getting these similar settings "right" in the "config" file in /boot is usually the fix. I am assuming the same.
I can't imaging that ayufan would make these builds that don't support hdmi on a standard monitor. I must be missing something here.
Further not really wanting to use arch. I am very familiar with ubuntu as it my main dev distro for other work.
