Orbit (http://genesis.ne.mediaone.net/orbit/index.html)
Ssystem (http://www1.las.es/~amil/ssystem/)
Glasteroids (http://www.honors.montana.edu/~jjc/Glasteroids/))
XRacer (slow with textures) (http://xracer.annexia.org/)
Bunch of things on the Ultra Pluspack CD's (most is XGL)
Most of the glut demos.
etc

Go to one of the big sites for Unix s/w and do a search for OpenGL.  Many
of these apps require the glut toolkit, which can be downloaded in source
form complete with example programs from SGI.

Quake on Solaris doesn't go through OpenGL as it is texture intensive and
not poly intensive.  Sun's framebuffers really shine at the latter.
