All auto-focus lens have some sort of 'chip' inside .. Sigma 'reversed engineered' Canon's chip - however every time Canon brings out a new camera there is a chance the Sigma lens chip won't work (this is why you see lots of Sigma lens on eBay :-) )
IF you can prove you purchased your lens direct from an authorised Sigma dealer, Sigma will update the chip for free .. otherwise they charge about £35 .. you pay postage in both cases ..
Visit the Sigma web site for further info.

Well, I have the same thing with my 40D and 450D, too.
I think it's a flat cable or similar problem, because the aperture always stay wide opened, no DOF check; any larger aperture value setting cause err01, also sometimes (1 from 5) when I change the focal lenght close to 200mm.
At 28 mm with open ap. usually works fine.
