If you're using Ubuntu, you should use the binary packages instead of installing from source:

sudo apt-get install ros-electric-openni-kinect

Also, it looks like you have things in /opt/ros that aren't managed by apt. This is not a good idea and could cause things to act in unexpected ways.

yes i tried that first step but i got:mutu@mutu-Vostro-3550:~$ sudo apt-get install ros-electric-openni-kinect [sudo] password for mutu: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done ros-electric-openni-kinect is already the newest version.

Then you already have it installed and can try the launch files here: http://ros.org/wiki/openni_launch . If you get errors about things not being built or not being found, remove all files you added while attempting to do the source build and try again.
