As a X user and occasional embedded programmer, might I suggest
something with a pattern? Even if it's a X logo in the center, or just
a shapeless blob, or a row and column of white pixels. Anything that is
recognizable as the X root window.
I've displayed random areas of memory before because my hardware
framebuffer wasn't where I thought it was, and a black background was my
clue that something was really wrong.
Just my $0.01, what with the recession here in the US.
