Change LogLevel to debug and look in the error log to determine if
mod_cache is active.  (You can also log the "Age" HTTP Response header
in the access log to see what responses are cached).  But I wouldn't
bother trying mod_cache on anything except the very latest 2.0
versions, and I would recommend using 2.1, which has many cache
improvements.
