PyCharm 3.4 Community Edition does not support Tfs Integration

PyCharm 3.4 Community is a very fine IDE and I cannot complain. But for some of the stuff that I do I need to use Tfs as source control. I spent quite a few hours searching the web how to enable Tfs integration in PyCharm but I can't find a good documentation that says you can't not use in PyCharm. But IntelliJ IDEA feature comparison matrix shows that Tfs Integration is only available in Ultimate.  So it must be the case that Tfs Integration is only available in Professional version or it just does not work.

QNX Momentics throws a lot of error on start up after install in Ubuntu 13.10 64-bit

tldr; Reboot the machine. When starting up QNX Momentics 6.5.0 on Ubuntu 13.10 64-bit, it throws a lot of errors, like below. 'Initial state verification' has encountered a problem. An internal error has occured. [Details>>] [OK] There is an error in the QNX Configuration settings. Either the QNX_CONFIGURATION environment variable is not defined correctly or the location it points to is not accessible. Exit the IDE and fix the error? [No] [Yes] There is an error in the QNX compiler settings. Either the QNX compiler is not defined or compiler definition directory is not accessible. You should exit the IDE and fix the error immediately. Exit the IDE and fix the error? [No] [Yes] And what is the workaround? Reboot the machine. Guessing that the environment variables are not yet set after install, reboot picks up the new configuration. Keywords: QNX Momentics Ubuntu
