Hello,

The message "[ WARN] [1294763575.359267446]: [camera] does not match name tof in file" is just a warning, this shouldn't be the reason for not getting a point_cloud.

I think the reason is that you are not in the same group as the swissranger device (usually usb) and therefore you can't open the device.

Add yourself to the usb group:
* sudo adduser USERNAME usb

Best regards,
Florian

Hello Tully,

Thank you for your response.
So as you said I tried installing from the source by following instructions
@
http://www.ros.org/wiki/ROS/Tutorials/StackInstallation
Had some problems but found a way to fix em and got the package installed.

But when I run the following 
roslaunch cob_camera_sensors tof_ros.launch I get:

Trying to figure out what's wrong. Let me know if you have any suggestions
on this. Thank you again.
