su very slow [fixed]

F12:

Since about 2 days ago, all of a sudden it takes 25-30 secs to prompt for password when trying to su to another user.
CPU/RAM usage is low, no disk activity when trying to switch users, it just takes ages for no reason I can find!

Same from within gnome or on a virtual console, anyone else got this, or any tips on where to look?

It looks like "fingerprint authentication support" was enabled, and that was causing it. Disabled, and working fine now

selinux-policy-3..6.32-55 fixed the slowness, but the gdm logon screen is missing the users, other works.
Don't know if they are related. Could be a new gbm update. (or maybe hal-0.5.14-1)
