Neither df or any GUI for it will show swap because /swap has no
file system. 'fdisk -l' (as root that's a lower case L), or
'free -m' (as user) will show your swap partition. Sometimes it's
useful to clear the swap. As root,
swapoff -a and then
swapon -a
'free -m' should then show total swap size with -0- used. If for
some reason you have no /swap partition, there's a how-to for
creating a swap file. Not as efficient as a /swap partition tho.
