Hello Jozsef, You need to configure GNOME/gksu to use sudo. This is necessary in any case since some GNOME programs use gksu directly, and not su-to-root. For that, you have to change the gconf key /apps/gksu/sudo-mode.
Thank you, that worked. Could this be a default then, in case someone else installs Debian without a root password? Sudo was installed and configured automatically IIRC, it also just works in Ubuntu. So this is a wishlist priority instead.
