(...) Thanks. That helps. Case sensitivity is good but requiring upper case for hex is annoying. I suppose this is forth standard.

What version are you using? I believe random/srandom are broken in all non-CVS versions of legOS. To get the CVS version, head to (URL) and follow the instructions on that page.
