I'm having trouble with the Asus Xtion and openni2 in Hydro. I'm getting this error: [ERROR] [140934478.275581907]: Unsupported color video mode - Resolution: 640x480 30Hz Format:RGB888
basically what this guy is seeing: http://answers.ros.org/question/191498/

I will be trying to calibrate, as suggested in that thread, once I am able to get a hold of a camera calibration grid.

Has a solution been found anywhere? Other than upgrading to Indigo I mean.

Thank you.

EDIT:

I've attempted to calibrate following these instructions: http://wiki.ros.org/camera_calibration

I set the --no-service-check option to default=False as suggested here: http://answers.ros.org/question/223530/intel-realsense-r200-camera-calibration/
I did this because I was getting this message: ('Waiting for service', '//set_camera_info', '...') Service not found when running rosrun camera_calibration cameracalibrator. --size 5x8 --square 0.03 image:=/camera/image camera:=/ (I'm currently using a 5x8 30mm calibration grid)

Notes:
No window showing a video feed/ capture pops up at any point.
rosmake camera_calibration ran without error
This is on Ubuntu 12.04 ROS Hydro using an Asus Xtion
Still receiving the above Unsupported color video mode error

EDIT2:
I've upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04 and Indigo. I receive this error:

[ERROR] [1455146167.444460553]: Unsupported color video mode - Resolution: 640x480@30Hz Format: RGB888

So, it seems to be detecting the Asus Xtion

EDIT3:
Ok. This is interesting. I'm not sure that the problem is actually with the Asus now...
I was playing around with the turtlebot simulator in rviz and Gazebo. When trying to view the "video" from the simulated Asus Xtion on the turtlebot using this command roslaunch turtlebot_bringup 3dsensor.launch... I got this error:

I am however able to see the PointCloud data and DepthCloud data in rviz on the simulated device.

EDIT 4:
Well, this is disappointing. It looks like my specific model of Asus Xtion doesn't play nice with ROS.
I've tried a different Asus Xtion (the Pro Live ... I think it's the Q6670 Second Edition) and it works out of the box. The only difference I can tell is that this one is specifically marked on the box as "RGB and Depth Sensor" and has "3 different camera looking things" on the front... the RGB, and depth sensors... as opposed to the two that the Asus Xtion Pro has.
