Hi,

Just starting with the Arduino here. I'm following the directions included with the software and each time I try to load to the board I get this error:

avrdude: Expected signature for ATMEGA168 is 1E 94 06

thoughts?

Intel Mac
Arduino NG
Arduino 0009

thx in advance,

Do you have an ATmega8 or ATmega168 on your board?

ATmega8 - it works now. I did try it with the ATmega8 selected and it gave me a stream of errors, but it seems to work fine now.

hmmm...

thx!
