You can try disabling the input device with the xinput command. First see what input devices you have, just type:

And you should see a list like:

Then you can disable the input device you want with this command:

Where 9 is the id of the device you want to disable. You can also use the device name between quotes.

In xinput version 1.5.99.1 , you need to do xinput set-prop 9 'Device Enabled' 0 instead. Oddly on xinput v1.6.2 the first way work.

The xinput solution did not work for me. I instead followed the instructions in this thread. This will disable it at boot time.

1. Edit /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf
2. Add Option 'Ignore' 'on' to the end of the section with the touchscreen identifier
3. Reboot

• For the record (Google), I have a Samsung Series 7 and my touch screen was listed as ELAN Touchscreen in xinput.
• JFTR too, in this question says the power consumption difference is mostly negligible.

Edit file the file with

Change MatchIsTouchscreen from 'on' to 'off' in the Touchscreen section so it looks like this:

Save, Name and Exit

Touchscreen is disabled and no longer detected in xinput list.

If your touchscreen is a touch panel screen like a USB monitor, you can add default kernel driver usbtouchscreen into modprobe's blacklist file (/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf) and use your custom driver such as touchkit or evtouch.

As id for xinput changes on reboot, I added a simple one-line screen on session load:

Atmel Controller Board

My device's name is 'Atmel Atmel maXTouch Digitizer', change that with your device (use xinput --list for device name).

More data points... I have one of these Samsung 700t tablets, too. I've been struggling for some time trying to get any form of *buntu to run and be useful. I can finally report some success: I downloaded and installed the Kubuntu Active build of 12.04 (http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu-active/daily-live/) and it's functional enough to be a near-daily driver. Scrolling with the finger works and the on-screen keyboard works. I had to bump up X from 1.11 to 1.12 using Xorg-Edgers, though. Multitouch isn't working, and neither is the digitizer pen.

I've been working on this little side project for some time. If you're curious, I've documented my progress in various places.
