Vi dropping keystrokes

[rritchey]

Base system -
Vista 64bit 6.0.6002 SP2
quad core AMD procs
4GB ram
Running VMPlayer 2.5.3 build 185404

Steps to reproduce
1. from a fresh vm install server 9.04 and patch to latest updates/upgrades
2. install the vmtools using ubuntu904vmtools.sh
2. install update-manager-core
3. edit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades set Prompt=normal
4. sudo do-release-upgrade -d; use all the defaults
5. path and update to latest release versions
6. install apache sudo apt-get install apache2
7. launch sudo vi /etc/apache2/conf.d/fqdn

Response was that ever 2-3 keystrokes were being completely dropped by the system.
So when I typed:
ServerName localhost became
Svralcls

Is it only vi that has this behavior, or is it every editor and all keyboard input?

No!
Command line is fine! Only happened after doing the upgrade.
Rebooted system and tried again
Same effect

BTW, Didn't check other editors.
