"automatically detect and use swap partitions on USB disks"
I'm implementing this now -- in the next version swap partitions on USB drives will be mounted automatically, and if that provides enough memory Tor will be enabled.
Also, it would be wrong to say that Tor "works" now on routers with < 64MB of memory, even though it is enabled in 1.5.1. That's the problem -- if Tor is enabled without enough memory the router crashes. The check is only to keep people from shooting themselves in the foot.

I can see no indication that this is working
...
But have you created a SWAP partition on your HDD?
are no
how does one go about that?
There was data on the stick, I'm in the process of removing the data and then I was going to format fat32.
But now in going to google SWAP
Check this: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Partition/fdi ... oning.html
You will need to use fdisk to repartition your HDD, when you have made a backup of the data that you need.
I have not yet used this on Gargoyle, but I can see that the included fdisk can be used.
