I had two of those cards.  ;)  Didn't work with my specific configuration so I sold them off, but otherwise they're great in an A2000.  Yes, video ram will never show in the title bar.  There are a few commodities that will add it there though, if you hunt around.  Also if you have all the PII software there should be a utility that checks your card to ensure it's working correctly (and confirm if you have the 1MB or 2MB model, etc.).
 
BTW, have you seen this?  It's what I use:

Definitely!  That's a good mode for an A2000.  Much beyond that and it bogs down a bit.  Zorro II bus, and all.  But still perfectly useable!  :)
