There is no native JDBC driver for Microsoft Access. To use JDBC with Access, you to use the JDBC-ODBC bridge driver that is a part of JDBC. There isn't any way to use JDBC with an Access database on Ubuntu as Access requires Windows. There might be a way to do it with Wine but I wouldn't bother with it.

If you want a lightweight database that will work on any Java-platform, I would recommend HSQL.
