That is correct.

links2 does require SVGA (Super VGA).
VGA  = 16 colors (color depth 4)
SVGA = more than 16 colors (depth 8 or 15 or 16)

You are confusing SVGA with SVGAlib.  SVGAlib is an 
alternative GUI (used instead of X).  None of the 
official BL3 add-on packages use SVGAlib.  However, 
both the links2 and ABiWord add-ons require SVGA --
they do not work with VGA (16 colors).

Cheers,
Steven
