Here are the x86_64 package versions:

and on the netbook:
$ rpm -q NetworkManager initscripts
NetworkManager-0.8.1-0.1.git20100510.fc13.i686
initscripts-9.12-1.fc13.i686
I tried updating with the updates repo disabled, but for some reason
NM-0.8.1 is not picked up despite it being in the mirrors:
$ sudo yum --disablerepo=updates update initscripts NetworkManager
...

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
Any idea what could be causing this? If I try updating just
NetworkManager, I get "No Packages marked for Update"
So I downloaded the F-13 0.8.1-0.1.git20100510 packages, and tried a
'yum localupdate' -- and surprisingly get a "Nothing to do" response
from yum. Both the 0.8.0-0.4 from the prerelease and the final
0.8.1-0.1 have epoch set to 1, but for some reason yum thinks 0.8.0 >
0.8.1.
Getting more puzzling than ever. rpm -Uvh --test agrees with yum in
this case, that there is nothing to upgrade.
yum downgrade NetworkManager-0.8.1-0.1.git20100510.fc13 claims the
package does not exist, and rpm -Uvh --oldpackage does not do anything
either. *Very* odd.
