You don't need to configure it.  It should automatically discover and
configure it for you.  If you are using the latest development tree
(or the FC3-rc1 just announced) it should definately have the fixes to
the rhpl package which allows this automatic configuration to work.

If you update your system to the latest development (which is also
called "Rawhide") using up2date, or yum, you can try having the system
automatically configure the Synaptics Touchpad by issuing this command
at the command line:

system-config-display --reconfig
