By default one cannot log into a graphical root session in Debian. There is a
way of enabling it, but I am only too happy to be protected from myself and
don't know what it is! (After installation, that is. I understand that one
can now set it up during installation to use sudo not root.) But I use root
not sudo. I regard sudo as being Ubuntu. <dons flameproof suit>
