Is Redhat 9 running compiz-fusion? If not, anyone tried to install compiz-sufion in redhat 9??

I'm pretty sure that Red Hat 9 existed before Compiz did, so no, Red Hat 9 won't come with Compiz. You'll probably find it quite difficult to build Compiz for Red Hat 9 anyway, since it's likely to need newer versions of dependencies than RH9 has. Red Hat 9 is out of date and no longer supported by Red Hat, so you'd be better off using a newer distro.

I downloaded Fedora 8, it should has compiz-fusion built in. Right?

This says that Fedora 8 has a package for Compiz-Fusion, but you should note the fact that something exists doesn't necessarily mean it will be included in any particular distribution.
