Mac Mini connected to an IO Data monitor, in ML it looks OK at 1680x1050
but in Mavericks the only option shown is 1280x1024 producing weird elongated icons and the dock looks bad too if I put it on the left. That happens with the display set to "Best for monitor" and no other resolution options are available when set to "Scaled" (1080p and 720p are available but 1080p is out of the monitors range and 720p is horrible).
ML has lots of display resolutions to choose from.
Older hardware not supported?
