Start X in this same tty as login

I dont know how explained my problem correctly, but i try

What I try to do?
Automaticaly login to my user and startx as normal user in this same tty(without display manager)

I did autologin(tty1), and startx too but X starts in different tty(tty2). And it MUST run in this same tty as login(tty1). I tried several ways: change logind.conf(NAutoVTs), and startx --:1 but this not working.

Any help?

I use 'startx' and it starts in the same tty.

For me not, and i dont know why.
Earlier it works, it broken when i do something with my graphic drivers, but probably its not relevant.

You must make sure that .xinitrc in your homefolder has the right command according to which window manager og complete desktop enviroment you use.

Re: Start X in this same tty as login

This should contain Remote=no and Active=yes in the output.

You've got 'Active=no'.

Have you tried searching the forum for similar issues?

Post your logind.conf and the output of 'pgrep -c systemd-logind'.

$ pgrep -c systemd-logind
1

Yes, i read this topics, but doesnt help.

EDIT:
Ok so my workaround is use

xinit -- vt1

instead of

startx

But why now startx runs X in different tty is a very good question and i havn't answer...
