problems with graphics card with CS5

I am working a freelace gig using a G5 computer with Lion.

When using CS5 photoshop there seems to be a problem using

Mode/Index/Custom when using the eyedropper to select colors.

I use the work around "key command" which is totally anoying.

There is also a bug with the color picker/eydropper within the documents.

I read that this has to do with the graphics card.

Which graphics card do I need to resolve this issue?

PowerMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.1)

There are known issues/limitations with graphics cards in earlier machines.

Known issues | Adobe on Mac OS 10.7 Lion

Tested video cards | Photoshop CS5 - Adobe


We need to know specific about your Mac Pro (not a G5).


Click on "About This Mac" from the  in the menu bar, then "More Information" followed by "System Report".

Tell us what is said for Model Identifier under Hardware Overview, and then what is entered for Video Card under Hardware/Graphics-Displays
