Although this is not advised for security reasons, its none the less desirable.

Fedora comes with a version called Desktop Effects, simply compiz, however is does not have all the features of compiz-fusion. You can take a look at it under System -> Preferences -> Look and Feel -> Desktop Effects. Now if you want to use all the effects, plugins, etc . . . this is the post for you to follow.

This How-To covers how to configure and use sudo to perform commands as root, allowing you to do what you need to do, and still behaving like a moderately responsible person. There are two parts: part one is configuring sudo to allow users in the group “wheel” to run commands as root. Part two is adding users to the “wheel” group. Allowing users to run commands as root without first requiring a password is a potentially dangerous thing. Extra care should be taken if you choose to let sudo run without a password.

There are many methods to re-enable this, or to tweak other settings but until a configuration utility is created, the ideal way is to modify it in the Xorg configuration. By doing this, each user will have the same settings, it will not be desktop-specific, and will not require setting up additional startup scripts, running synclient, or creating a xorg.conf file. Any setting you would normally do with synclient (either manually, via startup script, or in xorg.conf) can be done in the HAL configs as shown in the following example.

This can hopefully help folks who are for some reason stuck without X, working remotely, or any other reason they may be unable to paste something into the pastebin.
