The default Vim installation on Debian does multiple undo, so I'm
thinking you may not be in Vim. Or you may be running it as "vi", in
which case it will emulate traditional vi in most things. Though if you
typed vi you are most likely using nvi or elvis, two small vi clones that
are installed by default.
