Well, you should still have all your styles, it's just that it's
separating them into two sections now (or rather you CAN do that now if
you wish - maybe you could before too, I don't know) - one in
the /usr/local/fluxbox area for system styles and one in
the /home/username/fluxbox area.  What you have quoted above isn't the
styles themselves, but looks more like the menu entry that tells how to
put those two locations in the menu.

See above.  It's possible you are using the default menu or something
like that.  I'm not sure if this is the normal behaviour but for some
reason or other I changed my ~.fluxbox/init file session.menuFile entry
to read ~/.fluxbox/mymenu.

Again, the wiki is a great place for this sort of info, as is the IRC
channel.

Check out this page:

http://fluxbox-wiki.org/index.php/Fluxbox-wiki

There are FAQS:

http://fluxbox-wiki.org/index.php/Faqs

et cetera - also on that page the IRC channel is discussed.

Sounds like you're seeing tabs for the first time.  You can find a way
to turn them off in the menu.  Running out of time here, but you should
be able to find it easily enough by looking around the fluxbox menu, or
the wiki.
