disable trackstick on ubuntu

tl;dr

this was the final command for me

xinput -set-prop "DualPoint Stick" "Device Enabled" 0

how did I get there:

xinput --list

watch for ids on each line.

xinput --list-props 13
xinput --set-props 13 142 0

Ids are dynamically alocated but you can use device and property name, thus:

xinput -set-prop "DualPoint Stick" "Device Enabled" 0
