You could try putting the following into your .emacs:

(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(background-color . \"green\"))

This works in GNU Emacs (to which this list is dedicated); not sure
about XEmacs.  You may try 'initial-frame-alist rather than
'default-frame-alist, too.

 gnu.emacs.help is for GNU Emacs, comp.emacs.xemacs is for XEmacs.
