When I open a new tab, it doesn't display the sites well. Everytime I start firefox, I have to go to the 'about:config' page and manually change the value of 'browser.newtab.url' to 'about: newtab' to get the right page.

What is the value in 'browser.newtab.url' when you start Firefox?

When I start it, it always says 'about:blank', no matter what it was last session. However, when it is changed, it keeps that value until the end of that session.
