If you run it headless, do you really need to have compiz on the
machine at all?
rpm -e compiz
for that matter you might as well get rid of the entire x windows system
yum groupremove 'GNOME Desktop Environment'
or kde if that is what you have or twm or whatever

The only command that I know of to stop desktop effects is
'/usr/bin/desktop effects.'
