OK, definitions:

Core: linux distribution, mostly consisting of boring UNIX style utilities and other middleware to boot a system

Hardware adaptation: kernel, drivers, plugins for a certain device

UI: what runs on top of a Core. UI can be for example the "Handset UX", "Plasma Active", "Cordia", "xterm"

Combine these three and you have a image for a device. UI doesn't say much about hardware adaptation or core, it just says something about UI.

If something is broken in UI on one device but not the other, then the hardware adaptation is at fault.

Now, go read my original post again with those definitions in mind.
