I must be geting old or something - I forgot how to make a texture that:

1) is a material_map
2) is wrapped around sphere like with map_type 1 or uv_mapping
3) but is scaled/repeated _before_ wraping around

In example like:
#declare texSiatka = texture {
  material_map {
    png "xbw.png" interpolate 4
    texture { pigment { rgb y } }
    texture { pigment { rgb x } }
  }
}

And .png is image of one "X" shaped latter. 
I want sphere be covered with in example 10 "X"-es in both directions
(10*10) and not just one.

I have not a complete answer but here is a clue:
See

2.5.12.6.5

Scale down your image before warp
