The same thing happened to me, after a dapper-edgy-feisty upgrade swap was not mounted at all at first, then I managed to set it right, and it was mounted twice. (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/96715).
Then yesterday I suddenly did not have a swap anymore (just out of the blue, I had not changed anything). The UUID appeared to have changed for some reason (this bug).
Have to mention that I also suffer from another system that unpredictably hangs at bootup, with message /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off (initramfs), (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/96084).

All major problems point to linux-source-2.6.20. My faith in this kernel version for ubuntu has been totally lost. I think that someone has to have a serious look at this kernel and the UUID system. I wish I could do this mself.
