Hello... I start using the "normal" taxonomy and then switched to CCK_taxonomy but it didn't solve my problem: how to retrieve the childs of a term in views?

Eg: cck_taxonomy is "geo" and the linked vocabulary contain "Italy" and "Rome" (child) terms.

How can I get records tagged "Rome" when I select "Italy" in views? Is this possible?

I don't think this is possible with the existing module. For a system like that to actually work well we'd need some sort of materialized path representation of the hierarchy and this just doesn't exist. Two things come close... the vancode functions in comment.module, and Drupal 6's menu system, but neither of those apply to taxonomy right now.
