Disable mouse or get fullscreen jframe in linux

Question

I am trying to create a login screen that will grant a user access to a particular application. For the login screen, I would like the ability to make the jframe run at fullscreen. I am able to do this on windows, but can't duplicate it on ubuntu linux. Since I am unable to get the code below to work on linux, maybe someone knows another way to get the same effect, or would it be possible to turn off the use of the mouse, not only on the jframe, but on the system itself?
Thanks for the help.
public static void main(String[] args) {
// initialize the Graphic device to default one
        final GraphicsDevice myDevice = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getDefaultScreenDevice();
// create the frame
        final JFrame test = new JFrame("Login Screen");
// set recomended attributes
        test.setResizable(false);
        test.setUndecorated(true);
// test.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); // we don't really need this because no mouse close is provided
        test.addKeyListener(new KeyAdapter() {
            @Override
            public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) {
                super.keyReleased(e);
// code to kill off other events such as ALT-F4 on windows should go here
// lets provide a way out for now
                if (e.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.VK_ESCAPE) {
                    myDevice.setFullScreenWindow(null);
                    test.dispose();
                    System.exit(0);
       System.out.println("before full screen");
// query for supported
        if (myDevice.isFullScreenSupported()) {
            System.out.println("full screen supported");
            try {
                myDevice.setFullScreenWindow(test);
            } catch (Exception e) {
// if something goes wrong kill the window get back to desktop
                myDevice.setFullScreenWindow(null);
                e.printStackTrace();
    }

Hi,
I am not an expert and am trolling this site hoping to find the answer to my problem. However, I think that I might know the answer to this one.
Open a site that has a flash application in it (like a you tube video). Right click on the flash window, select settings, and click the check box that selects "Enable hardware acceleration".  Doing this should improve the speed of video playback.
Of course, it has done nothing for me since upgrading to Flash version 10.1, but it might work better for you.
