Is it connected to a USB 3.0 port? Then try a USB 2 port.

it looks that you have a problem with usb interface and kinect......

please have a look at gspca_kinect on google to resolve this issue...

like run this command (rmmod -f gspca_kinect)

I am working with Ubuntu and Ros Groovy, I have the same problem as you. The strange thing is that I have two computers with Groovy, and one is working fine with the Kinect and the other is not. The only difference between the two computers is that I did some updates on the one that is not working

Hi Xittx, did you try this solution : http://answers.ros.org/question/60562/ubuntu-12042-and-openni_launch-not-detecting-kinect-after-update/ It worked for me.
