I have an XVR-600 in my sb150 too. Disable the Quake3 OpenGL Extensions in 
the 'graphics' menu. That was the only way I could get it to work without 
sky artifacts.. I suspect a bug in the jfb driver since I can reliably 
reproduce the results by running ioq3/q3 in exported DISPLAY mode from a 
Linux/x86 box. I have not had time to escalade this with SUN yet but 
that's planned... :)

Regards,

Vincent
