So the answer to my question is that you installed with root, so a root GUI will be disabled by default. You will have to enable it. It is now, I believe, possible to install without root, when sudo will behave however sudo behaves, presumably including a root GUI. Presumably a GUI specifically for sudo counts as a root GUI? I don't quite see how a sudo GUI session works, but then I rarely use sudo, and when I do I use it at the CLI. I repeat myself: in Debian a root GUI is disabled by default.
