Add something like:

/usr/X11R6/bin/xv -root -quit /usr/include/X11/pixmaps/background.xpm

or:

/usr/local/bin/X11/xpmroot /usr/include/X11/pixmaps/background.xpm

to the file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xsetup_0 (or whichever file
corresponds to the `DisplayManager._0.setup' resource in the file
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/xdm-config).
