Hi All, Stéphane and Bernhard,

OK, I have tried to load hw_random into the kernel by modprobe hw_random .
It worked:
lsmod |grep ran
hw_random               7320  0

But, there is no l /dev/hw_random or anything close?

Is there a how to somewhere regarding this? I don't know what is the correct 
way of making the device and making /dev/random work rather than linking it 
to /dev/urandom ?

Any ideas? :)
