The problem is two fold
first it's gpm.  Kill it off before you start playing.
Second is your mouse settings under XF86Config
Look in /etc/X11/XF86Config under the pointer section your mouse is
probably set as Microsoft or something else.  Set it to PS2 or PS/2
then try quake.  It shouldn't effect X at all.
