Here are the SwitchResX settings for the ZM-M220W that I alluded to in last night's reply - these get it work via a Thunderbolt port using a DisplayPort to VGA adapter cable on a new 27" iMac. I'm not sure if all these settings need to be entered and even after entering the frequency specs the software could not quite figure out the 1680x1050 resolution right. I thus configured it as a Custom Resolution and got it to work.
Display Information Panel: (gleaned from manual)
V. freq 56 - 75 Hz
H. freq 31.50 - 80.00 kHz
Pixel Clock 28.32 - 135 MHz
Default Resolution 1680 x 1050 @ 60 Hz
Current Resolutions Panel:
Set to 1680 x 1050, 60 Hz (likely only available after setting custom resolution in next panel)
Custom Resolutions:
Created a new one by clicking "+" button
Check the "Use simplified settings" button and selected CVT-RB from popup menu
Set Active area as 1680 and 1050
Set Scan rate Vertical to 56.632 Hz
Selected Positive sync for Horizontal only.
Then saved and rebooted. Finally, it looks like you have to set the resolution in the Displays panel for each use of the system (I use the Displays Menu bar icon). And SwitchResX will set you back 14 € (~$18) after a ten day demo period.
Cheers,
