Update: To use the special S3 Quake3 Arena maps with S3TC you need a special EXE file bsides of the maps: DMMQ3.EXE. The levels work without any additional settings with the 5.08 drivers if you start the game with this EXE instead of the normal file. You can download the EXE and levels here: S3 Q3A Levels.
