Yes it already run in fullscreen.

But if the program closes, the user see all ubuntu bars, menus, dialogs.

I want only my program  and when it closes the system shutdown.

So you want to launch your program without launching a desktop environment first?
Your problem is not related to SFML, you should look into X11 (Linux graphical server).
