Here the correct config for gzip :

Code:

[COLOR=#666666][FONT=Consolas]gzip on;
[/FONT][/COLOR]gzip_comp_level 2;
gzip_http_version 1.0;
gzip_proxied any;
gzip_min_length 1100;
gzip_buffers 16 8k;
gzip_types text/plain text/html text/css application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript;
gzip_disable "MSIE [1-6].(?!.*SV1)";

Star with connecting to your hosting via SSH.

Then you will need to configure the configuration file, do that by editing it:
sudo nano /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

Now un-comment the things you want and comment the things you dont want. (or use a ready configureation form sofwhere else such as here)

After configuring the configuration file to your needs, save/close it and restart nginx.
nginx restart

NOTE:
modify the command to suit your OS
Use config settings best to your needs
where I used nano to edit you can use anything else.

If you need specific help with your OS or any specific help let me know as this tutorial was pretty general.
