I used Kinect on my ubuntu laptop, with a 12V adapter connect Kinect to usb.

But the light on Kinect is always flashing and when checking lsusb, I can sometimes see Motor plugin and NEC which I think is the 12V adapter. It is unstable because it sometimes occurred Motor and sometimes not. But NEC is always there.

I run glview and it shows number of devices found: 0

What is the problem?

This guide works. try to follow its steps. If you are having trouble just recognizing the unit, what happens when you type lsusb do you see any Xbox? you should see 3 lines
