 Why is there no update notifier in Debian 8.4.0? 

It's been replaced by gnome-packagekit.

 

A better selection of desktop wallpapers would be nice.

A little silly to keep more than a basic selection in the packages at this point, as tastes vary widely and Google Image Search, Imgur, and eleventy other sites are out there catering to every imaginable taste.

 

One more question, is remote root login disabled and how should it read in the sshd configuration file?

Default is currently to allow root login by known key only. This can be changed in /etc/ssh/sshd_config by changing the statement "PermitRootLogin without-password" to "PermitRootLogin no".

 

There is a warning during boot up that says Open BSD secure shell server not started. Could this be a cosmetic bug?

 You might check your logs to see what's going on if you have openssh-server installed.
