Try MySQL Workbench as MySQL/MariaDB front-end. It has a nice GUI 
interface and is FOSS. There is Ubuntu ppa for Natty and Oneiric if the 
version found on Oracle does not work.

There is a browser/php based GUI front-end phpMyAdmin I believe is the name.

Another front end is HeidiSQL, it is included with the Windows version 
of MariaDB. There is no Linux version of this front-end.
