Works for me.  But.

Odd that it is slower than an xterm for displaying a "ps ax" ... 0.517s
on 703 in the xterm, 3.068s in the text console ... why is it six times
slower?

(The xterm being compared was "xterm -fa DejaVu LGC Sans Mono -fs 9 +sb
-bg black -fg white" started within a Terminal activity.  Tested on a
C2, which was idle.)

Over to Alt/F2, the old font gives 1.359s for the text console.  Still,
this default font is slower than the xterm.

It must be due to the output device ... ssh to the C2, "ps ax" takes
0.073s.

Not exactly a rock solid test ... does anyone else see similar?
