Failed to load resource: cancelled ... localhost:2222/socket.io/xhr-polling//

I launch TermKit and a plain black screen appears. In the WebKit console, the following error appears about every 10 seconds:

Failed to load resource: cancelled ... localhost:2222/socket.io/xhr-polling//1305822806506

With new numbers on the end each time.

socket.io seems to be installed correctly though:

$ npm install socket.io
npm info it worked if it ends with ok
npm info using npm@0.3.18
npm info using node@v0.4.7
npm info preinstall socket.io@0.6.18
npm info install socket.io@0.6.18
npm info postinstall socket.io@0.6.18
npm info predeactivate socket.io@0.6.18
npm info deactivate socket.io@0.6.18
npm info postdeactivate socket.io@0.6.18
npm info preactivate socket.io@0.6.18
npm info activate socket.io@0.6.18
npm info postactivate socket.io@0.6.18
npm info build Success: socket.io@0.6.18
npm ok

Any thoughts?

did you clone correctly? Have you tried updating node?

From readme file:
5. Clone the TermKit repository: git clone git@github.com:unconed/TermKit.git --recursive
6. Users of older git versions will need to type: git submodule update --init

After running all the command in terminal from http://www.techdrivein.com/2011/06/termkit-is-terminal-reimagined-install.html , at last I got this. After hours of installation work comes the biggest disappointment.
