Abstract
The exact solution of a particular form of the stationary state generalized Fokker-Planck equations, which is given under certain conditions by the classical Tsallis distribution, is compared with the solution of the MAXENT equations obtained using the classical Tsallis entropy. The solutions only agree provided the Tsallis parameter, q, is no longer taken to be constant.
