I've extended the virtual drive on VMware from 7 Gb to 8 Gb.
Rebooted my guest Debian with Gparted and extended the drive with the 1
extra Gb successfuly.
Rebooting again and starting my virtualized Debian I make a fdisk -l and
it seems that the extra Gb is actually there.

But if I run df -h it seems that it is not.

What's the problem?
The problem is that the installation uses LVM. At best, you only
extended the "physical volume" (LVM container) in /dev/sda5. At worst
you only extended the partition /dev/sda5.
Steps :
1) Extend the PV to the new partition size (will do nothing if not needed) :
pvresize /dev/sda5
2) Check available space in the "volume group" :
vgscan
3) Display "logical volumes" :
lvscan
4) Extend logical volume(s) as desired (assuming extN) :
lvextend -L <size> /dev/<vg>/<lv>
5) Resize filesystem(s) :
resize2fs /dev/<vg>/<lv>
