Try `C-x u', which is also bound to `undo'.  (It might be that your 
national keyboard has problems with `C-_', although it does work for me.)

You can tell what does Emacs see when you press C-_ (or any other key) by 
typing `C-h l' (that's an ell, not the digit one).  This pops up a window 
with the last 100 keystrokes recorded by the keyboard loop.

Pressing `C-h c' and then the offending keystroke (`C-_' in this case) 
should also display the key Emacs saw and its function.
