xmessage, for example. Text only, easy to configure for confirmation buttons etc. Optionally, for even nicer messages, something like konqueror, invoking it with a profile that turns off any menu bars and stuff and runs in full screen mode. This would allow for html display, of course. In a certain (non-LTSP-) setup I have one display that has no input devices attached, just displays images with a short descriptive text. This is done mainly with xli, which makes bitmap display easy. You will have to play around with the .Xauthority, I guess.
