Asus Xtion PRO fails to connect on Oneiric, Electric [Closed] [closed]
I have seen posts which mentioned this, but they were either on a different setup or had a separate problem.
Due to various bugs running with openni_launch from openni_kinect, I had to step back to the old openni_camera_deprecated package in openni_ros. A Kinect will launch perfectly every time, but the Xtion does not register a serial number (or a device name as far a Ubuntu is concerned), and space is at a premium on this robot.
Seeing the lack of serial number recognition and believing that to be the problem, I tried launching with the device_id set to the serial number printed on the Xtion, and with the serial number blank, in addition to the default '#1'. Relevant lines of launch output (rviz lines omitted):
