OpenNi2 and Asus Xtion Pro Live device not found

I'm getting crazy... It just doesnt work:
I'm using Ubuntu 13.10 64bit edition.
After updating the whole system I installed what I think are all of the packages needed for OpenNI2: sudo apt-get install g++ python libusb-1.0-0-dev libudev-dev openjdk-6-jdk freeglut3-dev doxygen graphviz -y.
After that I downloaded the OpenNI2 Version 2.2.0.32 Beta Linux x64.
After unpacking I ran the install.sh with no errors.
Then plugging in the sensor, lsusb output:
Bus 001 Device 007: ID 1d27:0601 ASUS
But when I try to run the SimpleViewer example, I always get the following error:
After initialization:
SimpleViewer: Device open failed:
DeviceOpen using default: no devices found

Thanks for your help:

Same issue with Structure Sensor and PrimeSense on 14.04 32bit and 64bit, showing as Device ID 1d27:0600 ASUS

Solution was to create a symbolic link from the libudev.so.0 file it seems OpenNI2 is expecting to find.

Ubuntu 14.04

$ sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so.1.3.5 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so.0

Ubuntu 15.04

$ sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so.1.6.2 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so.0

Then just run your ./NiViewer and smile.

I followed directions here: http://codeyarns.com/2015/09/28/no-devices-found-error-with-openni2/

Just for update this for Ubuntu 14 and the new repository should use the following commands.

# Build OpenNI
git clone https://github.com/occipital/OpenNI2.git
cd OpenNI2 && make -j4

Only Xtion ID 1d27:0601 ASUS is working but not the 0600 for a descriptor problem. more info here

I got the same problem when using the OpenNI 2 binary drivers from their web site.

I got it to work with compiling from source.

You have to install both the OpenNI driver for the Xtion and OpenNI 2 itself.

Try this:

# Build OpenNI driver for PrimeSense devices (Asus Xtion in our case)
git clone [email protected]:PrimeSense/Sensor.git
cd Sensor
cd Platform/Linux/CreateRedist && ./RedistMaker && cd ../../..
cd Platform/Linux/Redist && cd Sensor-Bin-* && sudo ./install.sh && cd ../../../../../

# Build OpenNI
git clone -b develop [email protected]:OpenNI/OpenNI2.git
cd OpenNI2 && make -j4 && cd ..

# Plug in the camera and try the viewer
cd OpenNI2/Bin/x64-Release && ./NiViewer

I used the develop branch of OpenNI above because master had some small (fixable) build errors.

Please tell me if this worked for you as well!
