You can get a Messagebox with:
        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this,
                                      "Message",
                                      "Title",
                                      JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE,
                                      null);

The problem is that I work with Linux and have several desktops. The
messagebox is displayed on the desktop where the program is running.
Is there a method to get the messagebox on the current desktop?

For example the program is running on desktop 3. I am working on
desktop 1. Instead of the messagebox displayed on desktop 3 (where I
will not see it), I want it displayed on desktop 1.
