When I open a new tab, it is totally blank. Recently I was exploring all the Firefox features & realized that a new tab should be showing sights I visit often. if I close all my tabs, I do get a page a with my favorite tabs. Should I not be getting this page when I open a new tab? I've checked my about:config and browser.newtab.url is set to about:newtab.

What can I do to get this page to load when open a new tab?
