Programming Issues
I recently assembled my SpokePOV kit, and it seems to work fine, as all the LEDs light up in order when I insert batteries. Every time I try to program it, it gives me the message "IO ERROR: died at address 0". I've tried it on three different computers, all of them with giveio installed and running. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Checked with jbreese - his resistors are correct - soldering looks good - any other suggestions which might cause this error?

maybe theres something running thats taking up the parallel port? hmm. and you're hitting the 'reset' button right before you click 'program'? the only way i can think of to formally debug it is to install python/wxpython/pyparallel and look at the commandline debugging output. thats a bit of a hassle, but...
