[SOLVED] X.org hide output when starting (auto start X on tty login)?

Hello.
How can I hide Xorg output log when system starting up? I'm using auto-login to tty + auto-starting X scripts. No login manager installed.
I'm trying to make a silent boot setup.

Redirect it to a log or /dev/null.

.zprofile contents:
[[ -z $DISPLAY && $XDG_VTNR -eq 1 ]] && exec startx

adding: >> /dev/null after exec startx did not change anything.
