Hello,

I am trying to get the kinect to work on ROS fuerte and Ubuntu 12.04, I have installed the openni drivers by typing the command:

sudo apt-get install ros-fuerte-openni-launch

and then in a new terminal: roslaunch openni_launch openni.launch

I get the following errors:

... logging to /home/samme/.ros/log/ccef1f80-4728-11e2-bace-60672021cf54/roslaunch-samme-Latitude-E6320-14241.log Checking log directory for disk usage. This may take awhile. Press Ctrl-C to interrupt Done checking log file disk usage. Usage is <1GB.

started roslaunch server http://samme-Latitude-E6320:49615/
