From http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.22/
gconftool-2 -s  --type bool  /apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager  true

Be aware that "Not all graphics hardware reliably supports compositing, so this
feature is currently turned off by default and not yet exposed in the preferences"

Cheers,
