You can check two places fairly quickly.  You can do su then cd
/etc then cat fstab.  Your Swap partition should be listed
there.  To see how much and whether it is being used, go to
Applications->Monitoring->System Information.  If you click on
Detailed Information then Memory Information, you should see your
swap size and the usage.
