That has been a problem with the Banshee Cards in particular...try adding
the following lines to your baseq2\autoexec.cfg file:

// Settings to brighten up quake2
set vid_gamma "0.700000"
set intensity "2.0"
set gl_modulate "2.3"

It worked for me...you can play with the numbers also if you need it
brighter. Good luck!
