problem with graphics/ACPI

hello. my problem is similar to this one:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=82052

except the solution (disabling pcmcia modules in rc.conf) doesn't work for me.
i have a compaq 6720s with intel gma x3100 gpu
the display works right only with acpi off in vesa mode

with acpi on the screen goes blank while evdev initializes

I have installed and configured xorg and if I blindly input my login and xinit, the screen starts working and shows xterm session normally in the right resolution but when I tried the same thing with openbox the screen remained blank
I have seen the other solution which included recompiling kernel and thats not exactly a thing I am confident enough to do (I wouldn't really know what I'd be doing, I'm not even sure I know exactly what ACPI and evdev means..)
can anyone help please?
