I'm trying to get some depth data out of the Xtion Pro. I'm on ubuntu 10.0.4. I'm using the latest version of openni_ros and I'm following the directions at http://www.ros.org/wiki/openni_launch under 3. Quick Start to the T.
Unfortunately, I don't see any data in rviz, and I get the following message in the console. It looks like it can't detect my device?
[ INFO] [1314686850.673973496]: Number devices connected: 1
[ INFO] [1314686850.674117789]: 1. device on bus 003:02 is a PrimeSense Device (600) from PrimeSense (1d27) with serial id ''

Reason: The network connection has been closed!
Any ideas on what this closed network connection might be? And how I might repair it? Any one else using an Xtion Pro experiencing similar issues?

Yes, using Electric. Yes running roslaunch openni_launch openni.launch. Yes it is an Xtion pro. Any additional info I could give to get help?

A couple clarifications: you're using Electric and getting this error following roslaunch openni_launch openni.launch? Also, your device is an Xtion Pro (no RGB camera) and not the new Xtion Pro Live? Following the openni_launch instructions, I'm able to use my Xtion Pro.
