I will test this. Anyone could help us?

Sorry, I did not read this mail until today. It was in the Spam catcher.
Generators are not linked to distributions. The distributions just need long streams of integers, and they are just as happy with one as another.
Now, if you are asking "I've used MT19937 (the best one) generator for one random stream, and I need another random stream to draw values
from, what should I use next?" then I don't know. Perhaps you could initialize another MT19937 generator with a different seed.
Maybe the experts will advise us.
