The entry my Debian unstable system looks like this: /dev/hda8 none swap sw 0 0 If you issue the command in a terminal window: cat /proc/swaps : what does it tell you? If it is not mounted I would use fdisk or cfdisk to check that the partition type actually was set to linux swap, and change it if it isn't. And then format it with the mkswap command.
