Player is a modular middleware where you can interface to several robotics sensors. Your issue is related to Kinnect driver which is probably not installed i your computer. Use ccmake to select which driver interfaces should be compiled. It is a pretty big list of devices. Search for the Kinnect driver and just disable it if you are not planning to use it. If you need it, install the Kinnect driver BEFORE installing Player.
