rotating.sty uses the graphics drivers, so it should work with pdftex
as well.

  \DeclareOption*{\PassOptionsToPackage{\CurrentOption}{graphics}}
  [...]
  \RequirePackage{graphicx}
  [...]
  \def\rotdriver#1{\makeatletter\input{#1.def}\makeatother}


If 2.9 is the version number, I wonder where it comes from.  The
current version is:

  \def\RInfo{1997/09/26 v2.13}
  %% File: rotating.dtx Copyright (C) 1995--1999
  \ProvidesPackage{rotating}[\RInfo\space Rotation package]
