Assuming you are using a reiserfs filesystem, resizing it is a 2-step
process. The first step is what you have accomplished. The second step
is:
resize_reiserfs -f /dev/vg/home
However, given the output of your "vgdisplay" with particular reference
to the lines below, I doubt that you can resize any logical volumes in
your volume group:
