Thierry,
This behavior could be the symptom of either malfunctioning OpenGL, or a
screen with two few colors to support color-encoded picking (which is
what PyMOL uses behind the scenes).
Please confirm that your display is running in 24 or 32 bit color. If
that is the case and picking still fails, then please try saving a png
file of what you see on the screen ("png filename.png"). If that PNG
file exhibits any distortion or artifacts, then that's the cause of the
problems. Otherwise, PyMOL may have a bug...
Cheers,
Warren
