Indeed, this is not easy to find out. But the solution is simple: You
can set a linkpainter for an axis. Whenever a graph creates a linked
axis (automatically), it creates a linked axis using this linked
painter. So:

y2paint = pyx.graph.axis.painter.linked(innerticklength=0,
# note that the linked painter is to be prefered, since it already
# skips the labels and the axis title

will do.
