"When Firefox starts:" is set to "Show my homepage", but it still shows the last page visited anyway.
Firefox 20, Ubuntu 12.04, Cinnamon desktop. "When Firefox starts" is set to "Show my homepage". I tried settting browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes to zero. Still does it. I think it happens mosts often if I log out without closing Firefox first. Does not seem to matter what that last page was. This problem has existed for as long as I have been using Firefox. It seemed to go away at about version 17, but now it is back in version 20 (at least for me).
Possibly, uninstalling all my add-ons or closing all tabs and shutting down in proper sequence would fix it. Come to think of it, going to my homepage and closing all other tabs before I log off would fix it for sure. But, it would be nice if it just worked.
Thanks

If the problem is that your settings are getting reset or failing to save correctly, you could check out this article: How to fix preferences that won't save.
Have you tested with your extensions disabled for a few shutdown or system restart cycles to see whether that makes any difference?
Less likely:
Could you make sure this preference is set to false: browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once. Usually is.
If you start Firefox with a shortcut, could you make sure there are no command-line options set that could override your default settings?
