I always put a .vimrc in my home folder for turning :syntax on. But in OS X Lion it seems that sudo vi foo.txt ignore or can't find this vim configuration anymore.
Has anyone experiences the same thing?

If the file ~/.vimrc is not there, you'll just need to create it. To enable syntax highlighting, add
syntax on
to it. Also make sure that "Display ANSI colors" is enabled in the Terminal Settings.
Thankfully, you can still disable the trackpad in OS X Lion.
Open System Preferences, click on Universal Access, select Mouse & Trackpad and click on Trackpad Options... at the bottom. Tick the checkbox "Ignore built-in trackpad when mouse or wireless trackpad is present".

Try doing sudo visudo and making sure that this lines appears somewhere in there:
This should maintain the HOME directory and ~ should would as it did in Snow Leopard.
