Maximum size limitation on any single swap partition is about 127.68M, which 
is what your 130748 Kb is.  There is a way around this, if you need more swap 
space; you can have multiple swap partitions.  I'd split your swap space into 
2 equal sized partitions, run mkswap and swapon on them & add  them to your 
fstab.
