I think Peter Hutterer provided an answer to your question recently on this 
list: See http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2010-October/051507.html

In short, if your version of xinput, the device driver and the xorg server is 
new enough you should be able to do:

xinput set-prop <device name> "Device Enabled" 0

HTH,

With the <xinput --set-prop 10 127 0> command, I succed to deactivate mouse.

But this mouse is plugged and identified.
Will it be se same thing with a constructor other mouse?

It is the same thing with keyboard.
But with the <xinput --set-prop 11 127 0> command, I have carriage return key pressed every time.

Then, I don't think this solution is ok for me!
Because I think I can't know the new device id for plugged keyboards or mouse.

With what I know, I think it is better to set an udev rule.
Am I right?

Thanks,
Daniel.
