vi: deleted text not placed in register

I always thought that deleted text get stacked in the register. Then I can use '<x>p' to undelete, where <x> the number of the nth deletion. But when I try this it seems that only the last delete action get stored. Am I missing some kind of setting?

What is the OS that you are using? It is only the newer versions of vi that hold a number of lines of text. I tried this on my HP vi, and only the last line can be pasted.

Sorry, looks like you are stuck with the last delete/last command undo.
