Well, I'm the quake maintainer, so maybe I can help.

Could this be a conflict of some kind with your window manager? 
What key do you have bound to fire? The default is <ctrl>, and it works
fine under fvwm.

Are you using the mouse in xf86quake and have this problem? Or are you
experiencing this problem in regular xquake?

I do wonder if this is a problem with your window manager. Other than
that, I can't guess. Try a different window manager (fvwm2 seems ok for
quake) and let's see if the problems go away.

So are you saying if someone shoots at you, the quake window turns into an
icon?
