1.x was fundamentally broken in the sence that if you had images larger than
the screen, that would push the controls beyond reach, so something definitely
had to be done about this, as many people complained about this. That's the
reason why there are now scrollbars.

This stopped being much of a problem for me when I stopped worrying about whether I could see the buttons, and I always use key-presses anyway rather than the mouse. I no longer resize images that I am going to use in mnemosyne. Instead a run a quick 'sed' one-liner (below) that scans the data file and puts in the appropriate height and that works ok for me. As long as I can see the answer (almost always a two line piece of text; botanic and common name) I'm quite happy.

sed -e "s/jpg\".*>/jpg\" height=550>/" < /home/dougie/.mnemosyne/default.mem > /home/dougie/mnemnewres
  cp -v /home/dougie/mnemnewres /home/dougie/.mnemosyne/default.mem

I use Linux (Mint 10) and had a go installing the beta but wasn't successful, so will just stick with 1.x in the meantime.
