Unfortunately, I am unfamiliar with your particular issue...so I don't
know how much assistance I can be, other than the below note:

If you used a guided install method, then a swap partition was made for
you... and no, it would not show up under computer:///
and actually...you don't _need_ a separate partition... you can also
make a swap file if you need to.
please check the contents of the file "/etc/fstab" to see what you do
have already, which may be of some more help to others. To do this, run
the following command
gedit /etc/fstab
If you're unsure, you can just paste the contents here, so somebody who
understands better can have a look. If it turns out that you do indeed
need swap, I can probably walk you through the process, or find a nice
tutorial for you.
Hope that helps!
