syscons works fine with vt220 too.  I do have a custom kernel config,
but the only changes that I've done to the syscons part are:

+options        MAXCONS=8               # number of virtual consoles
+options        SC_ALT_MOUSE_IMAGE      # simplified mouse cursor in text mode
+options        SC_DISABLE_REBOOT       # disable reboot key sequence
+options        SC_HISTORY_SIZE=100     # small number of history buffer lines
+options        SC_PIXEL_MODE           # add support for the raster text mode
+options        SC_TWOBUTTON_MOUSE      # use right button to paste text
