The whole XVesa thing is just a hunch. You could be suffering from a completely different problem...
There are two ways to do swap with DSL.
One way is to use
sudo cfdisk /dev/hda
where hda is your hard drive location.
If you have free unpartitioned space on your HD, just create a new "Linux Swap" partition and save it.
For example if you create a new primary partition #3 as Linux swap, you will then have a swap partition at /dev/hda3
Then you must format it.
sudo mkswap /dev/hda3
and then activate it. If you reboot the computer it will automatically activated at startup.
The other option is to create a DOS swap file if you have an existing FAT/FAT32 parition, IE: MSDOS/Win95/98/ME "C:\" drive.
Just use the Make DOS swap file option from the Fluxbox menu.
Good Luck.
