 The suncg6 graphics card only supports 8bpp, it's nearly 15 year old
 technology.

I'm afraid I didn't make my point clear enough. I have an Ultra1 box
and am using the suncg6 driver, although I am not sure that's the
graphics card the system has. But, while booting, the SUN logo seems to me to 
have much better quality of just 8bpp (I think). So, I think I might be using 
the wrong driver. Is it possible?

I have no documentation, and don't know of a way of getting to know thw exact 
graphics card it is. Is there a similar command to 'lspci' for the SUN hardware?

Thanks again,
Ángel

Run prtconf -p -v as root.

You could also open the case, look for a part number on the video card,
and search the web.
