It's funny that Nokia X has bigger chance to get a fully working Sailfish OS than Nokia N9 which was always considered more open comparing to other handsets.

Nokia X has probadly newer Qualcom something with better GPU than N9 with 5 year old HW.
N9 Omap GFX driver is old and X11 only.
I guess Qt5/QtQuick2 and Wayland is using OpenGL more heavily than N9 did and depends on good better 3D GFX HW drivers.
There seems to be same issue with mer kernel adaptions for Qt5/Wayland for beaglebone black (anyone knows if there exist any mer/nemo/sail kickstart files for beaglebone black btw?) it has almost same GFX as N9 if I remember correct.

I think there shouldn't be put that much effort in porting sailfish to N9.
If the orientation and the camera will not be fixed, who will use it as day-by-day phone (is anybody that uses now n9 with sailfish?)
Then is the GPS, Android interface, etc.
There is the sailfish theme which gives a flavour, is that one that could be improved eventually
.
N9 is a phone beautiful as it is, i see no way you could improve it without too much effort. We love it, we don't want it to die, but that's it, it's already quite old, jolla is the future.
Moreover, in the near future sailfish will be fully functional on android phones, this is the thing Jolla team is working on.

AFAIK the lowlevel N9 camdriver is there. But the jollaapp "depends" on android via libhybris camera drivers and N9 depends core linux driver. But both uses gstreamer but different sinks if I understand it correct... Some who know this better should clarify. But to me it sounds like cameraplus is something to look at?
Cameraplus was inititial for harmattan but seems to have some uknown state sailfishport. I tried compile some month ago, but failed. but did not investigate why it failed... go check it
