Chrome browser: how to change/set up the new tab page


Hi!

I installed Chrome from the Slackware extra on the DVD.
When I start it , the "Home page"/New Tab page is filled with a big Google Bolivia in the middle, which I don't need since I use DuckDuckGo as a search engine.

I would like to remove it.

What should I do to achieve this?

Thank you in advance

This is not really a Slackware question, nonetheless here is an extension to make the page blank instead.

Great, I am glad! Next time you have a question like this however, post it in Linux - Software as it really has nothing to do with Slackware installation.
