Desktop/rootless/shadow depends on what you intend to use X2Go for. These settings are configured on the client, and can be set/changed individually for every connection you decide to set up (they're saved as "tiles" you can click on to start a connection).
Assuming local client that wants a desktop on a remote server, which of the above would that be? BTW I don't get a chance to click on the tiles. As the session starts, it asks for a passphrase (I put in my private rsa key) and then it briefly shows a window which I believe may be where those tiles are located. But it disappears almost immediately and brings up another window with the session details, which tells me I'm in a "Desktop" session.
If you're already at the stage where the session starts, then you're past the "tile" stage. The tiles are the white thingies with rounded edges on the right of the X2GoClient window. You click one, then either the login window appears asking you to enter a password, or, assuming you provided sufficient authentication data, the session starts immediately.
To change the settings of an existing tile, click the downward-pointing triangle in the lower right corner of the tile.
As to why you are being told that you are in a desktop session, but aren't seeing a remote desktop - it would be helpful to know which desktop environment you picked when setting up the session.
Note that a) not all desktop environments are compatible with X2Go in all their versions - see http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:de-compat for details, and b) the particular desktop environment needs to be installed on the remote server for it to work - the X2Go packages have no dependency against all available desktop environments.
Does the list accept screenshot images?
It does, but if it exceeds the maximum message size, it will end up in the deferred queue, where I or another list admin will have to approve it manually.
