Hey man, I have the same problem as you. It happens occasionally and I cannot generate accurate maps. I mean, I've managed to make some of them when it doesn't crashes, but that's not the idea of this. I've looking for all kinds of variables on this without success. I know the problem resides on nodelet, and happens in freenect_launch and openni_launch.

Have you solved this issue? I'll be thankful

@gersonos , updated it with apt-get update and apt-get upgrade, may be fixed by the author.

Thanks for your reply suijing. I've tried and everything seems normal after it updates. Have you changed some ubuntu repositories? like the ones that comes after installing and the ros one?

Hi, I have the same problem and upgrading don't solve it. Does anybody know about a stable xbox360 kinect driver? freenect and openni seems to not work.
