My PC is Linux 2.6.35-32-generic-pae #67-Ubuntu SMP Mon Mar 5 21:23:19
UTC 2012 i686 GNU/Linux. I use Ubuntu 10.10 and Xeon W3530.
I can use Kcachegrind to profile code written in C++. But when I profile
python code(e.g., dial_tone.py), there is no profile data output.

I can't find my thread of dial_tone.py. I guess I use Oprofile in the
wrong way, could you give me some tips?
