You probably don't need to change the size of the swap partition. 2XRAM is
only a guideline. If you do need more swap space, it is probably easier
to add another swap partition rather than trying to enlarge the one you
have. Use QTparted to shrink an existing partition by, the amount you
need and create the partition, then add it to /etc/fstab. Copy the
existing swap line and change the device name/number.
