	#include <gl/gl.h>
	#include <gl/get.h>


	main()
	{
		short mtype;
		int ch;

		ginit();

		mtype = HZ30_SG;
		setmonitor( mtype );	/* switch to 30 Hz */

		sleep(5);

		mtype = HZ60;
		setmonitor( mtype );	/* switch back to normal */
	}



It compiles nicely, but upon execution I get an "invalid argument" error
message from both "setmonitor" calls.  Anyone run into this before?? Any
ideas on why this desn't work??



				Thanks,

The ginit() should help it work better.
