Two things:
xacro package installed?setup.bash file? Also:
i cd into the
launchfolder and runroslaunch display.launch
while this works (roslaunch can work with (absolute) paths), it's typically better to use the <PKG> <FILE> variant, as that will work from any directory (provided PKG is on the ROS_PACKAGE_PATH). In your case it would become:
roslaunch myrobot_description display.launch

Edit:
btw,it is kind of weird because I've chosen ros full desktop installation, so it should not be any necessary package missing, isn't it?
Yes, that is strange. xacro is supposed to be part of the robot meta-package, which in turn is part of the desktop variant. Installing ros-indigo-desktop should have installed xacro as well. Can you provide some more information on how you installed ROS? Which tutorial (if any) did you follow?
