Swap disk, how to check?

Hello,
I use an old 1GB disk for a swap area (i had a spare connector and a spare disk). The disk was checked before my installation. I am running Debian Squeeze btw.

How can i check if it's working properly? My hibernate does not work, so i cannot check it from there. When i shut down Iceweasel it returns my pages correctly, does it use swap or some other file?
 
Iceweasel/FF saves your session to some file in your profile, no apps use swap space directly.

To see how much is used you can just type 'free -m' and to see what all devices are setup as swap you can run 'cat /proc/swaps'.
