I'm not sure I understand. Why opentype (truetype works as well in  
mkiv)? And what do you mean with  "\usetypescript[postscript] is  ok"?  
Here's a list of fonts with full Greek support (with some links) that  
are sure to work in mkiv:

Gentium (this one looks good when you mix it with a sans as "Latin"  
bodyfont)
all the GFS fonts http://www.greekfontsociety.gr/pages/en_typefaces1.html
Minion (comes with Adobe Reader)
Old Standard http://www.thessalonica.org.ru/en/fonts.html
Recent versions of Times New Roman
Asteria http://www.ellopos.net/elpenor/greek-texts/greek-fonts.asp

If all you need is characters with the acute accent ("monotoniko"),  
you could also look at Adobe Myriad (comes with Adobe Reader) and  
numerous other fonts.
