listing terms under nodes in a vocabulary: is it really impossible?

hi drupal experts,
I am trying to make a listing of all nodes under a given node within a taxonomy (preferably with descriptions), in drupal 6.2. Apart from the built-in views I have tried taxonomy_list.module, taxonomy_vtn and Vocabulary Index, but none of them provide this functionality. All of them give a nice overview of the whole taxonomy, listing terms within it, (see e.g. the vocabulary index module at http://www.promente.org/methods) but the terms listed within it link to listings of *nodes* within those terms, not *subterms*, which is what I want.
Any solutions?
thanks
