I'm trying to use a kinect xbox360 with ubuntu 12.04 (and eventually ROS).
The kinect is plugged in and powered on (blinking green light). When running lsusb
, I do not see the expected three Microsoft devices
Bus 002 Device 009: ID 045e:02ae Microsoft Corp.
Bus 002 Device 008: ID 045e:02ad Microsoft Corp.
Bus 002 Device 007: ID 045e:02b0 Microsoft Corp.
When running lsusb -t
, I do see a device, with device ID that changes when plugging in/ unplugging the kinect (I also see a different device ID when plugging in a USB drive to test...).
I thought it might be a permissions issue, so I've added my user name to the "dialout" group sudo adduser username dialout
and logged out... without a change in behaviour.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.
