If its the first time you reboot after install, maybe you need to keep installing. I mean, you can build your computer with every graphic program you need from this one simple system. We call it 'base system'. There are a lot of ways to do so. From the command line you can run 'apt-get install name-of-the-program', or you can run aptitude. I prefer the first one, but its personal.
If you just want a working graphic system, try to run these commands:

apt-get update

apt-get install kde
or
apt-get install gnome
