Because i knew that to be such from slackware (which also has
single mode user runlevel = 1 ) ... ;)

I looked into it, because the loginmanagers failed if i did not set them
specifically to VT1 (which for me was possible only with lxdm). Ok, i'm
not really linux knowledged so, i thought there might be something

compared it to my previous slackware setup.
