I'm no expert on this, but a pty is a "pseudo tty", that is, a fake one,
and is what is used by pretty much anything that gives you a shell over
a network. A real tty is directly attached via hardware to the
computer. svgalib no doubt requires the ability to access direct
hardware or somesuch to draw graphics on a tty, and only then a VGA one
(serial terminal won't work). There's no way that screen could handle
that situation. At that point you want remote X Windows.
Maybe NoMachine NX will better suit your purpose.

A lot of programs seem to have issues with the pts/*

svgalib. Unfortunately, I've never really figured this
terminal screen stuff out.
Pointers?
