Did a little bbPress 1.2 plugin (2651) install on a “new” site. WP 3.0.1, BP 1.2.6, child theme with nothing but the style sheet pointing to the default so I could add the styles from the bbpress. Copied the bbpress template files supplied under bbp-themes directory into the child theme directory.
Now, things worked but they looked awful. Looking at the template code for all the files that started with page (page-bbp_front.php, page-bbp_topics.php, and page-bbp_form.php)
[code] <div id="container"><div id="content" role="main">
[/code]
This causes a problem because container is also used by bp-default, therefore any child theme would fail to look good. These same divs are in other template areas, too.
Changed html code to:
[code] <div id="bbp-forum-container"><div id="bbp-forum-content" role="main">
[/code]
Then added css styles for the new ids within the styles.css for the child theme:
Looks OK. But needs work:

Update: bbp-forum-info was missing in style sheet:
[code] .bbp-forum-info {text-align:left;
}[/code]
