Linux swap help



Hello to all:

I am running Slackware Linux 7.0 on a 64 Meg Intel box and have allocated
100 Meg swap.  Running X, with very little open - 4 xterms, xbiff,
xdaliclock, and one Netscape window, free reveals 95% main memory and swap
are used.  I am also using a static (non modular) 2.2.17 kernel with only
the items needed.  How do I free up unused swap space?

Thanks.

Scott
