Landscape Mode in OpenGL ES - Help

I've read on the OS guide to modify my view transform to rotate everything on a 90 degree angle when I want to render in landscape mode.

To do this I:

glTranslate( 0, 0, 0 );
glRotate( 90, 0, 0, 0 );
[_mytexture] drawAtPoint:CGPointMake(0,0);

The problem is nothing happens.....I looked at the helper code for drawAtPoint and it appears to be just drawing a quad at the given coordinates. What do I need to do in order for it to accept the rotate transform?

Is there an easier way to do Landscape mode? It seems all you would have to do is rotate your view and be done with it.

I am not new to 3D programming but am VERY new to OpenGL. Help with this would be appreciated.

Thanks!
