I've got an Acer Aspire 1520 with an NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5700 and a dual
Gentoo Linux/Windows install. The problem is that the graphics card seems to
be broken, at least partially: whenever I start the laptop the screen is
off, and here comes the weird part, if I select Gentoo from the grub boot (I
know where the options are, so I can select it even with the screen off) the
screen keeps off, but if I select Windows, the screen gets on, but only when
Windows reach the login screen, not before.

Does your Gentoo system boot into X, or to a console?

Have you tried plugging in an external monitor to see what is displayed there?
