This works:
xinput --set-prop 'eGalax Inc. eGalaxTouch EXC7903-66v03_T1' 'Device
Enabled' 0

That didn't work until I noticed the following lines in /var/log/Xorg.0.log:
[ 11.792] (**) eGalax Inc. eGalaxTouch EXC7903-66v03_T1: Applying
InputClass "Annoying Touch Screen"
[ 11.792] (II) No input driver specified, ignoring this device.
[ 11.792] (II) This device may have been added with another device file.
So I did some Googling and found the driver:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Annoying Touch Screen"
Driver "egalax"
MatchProduct "eGalax Inc. eGalaxTouch EXC7903-66v03_T1"
Option "DeviceEnabled" "0"
EndSection
This works.
Thanks,
