Are you sure you haven’t set it up properly? On Ubuntu you need to run the Kinect as root, or else do the following (as per the ofxKinect documentation):

  
You should create some udev rules in order to run the app without root privileges. As the root user, write this to /etc/udev/rules.d/51-kinect.rules (this works on Ubuntu 10.10):  
  
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="045e", SYSFS{idProduct}=="02ae", MODE="0660", GROUP="plugdev"  
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="045e", SYSFS{idProduct}=="02ad", MODE="0660", GROUP="plugdev"  
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="045e", SYSFS{idProduct}=="02b0", MODE="0660", GROUP="plugdev"  
  
From Ubuntu 12.10 the correct settings for udev rules are:  
  
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="045e", ATTR{idProduct}=="02ae", MODE="0660", GROUP="plugdev"  
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="045e", ATTR{idProduct}=="02ad", MODE="0660", GROUP="plugdev"  
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="045e", ATTR{idProduct}=="02b0", MODE="0660", GROUP="plugdev"
