with redhat anyways...
the script: /etc/X11/gdm/Init/Default contains commands that will run when
using gdm. The default command is: /usr/X11R6/bin/xsetroot -solid "#363047"
you should be able to change this to whatever backgrond you wish, even
use another program to change the background image (eg replace the xsetroot
command with: 'xv -quit -root <image file>'
