Abstract
Following Verlinde's conjecture, we show that Tsallis' classical free particle distribution at temperature can generate Newton's gravitational force's {\it distance's dependence}. If we want to repeat the concomitant argument by appealing to either Boltzmann-Gibbs' or Renyi's distributions, the attempt fails and one needs to modify the conjecture. Keywords: Tsallis', Boltzmann-Gibbs', and Renyi's distributions, classical partition function, entropic force.
