There are currently no good graphical clients for MySQL on Linux. when I say
good, I mean something on the caliber of MySQL Front - the well known free
(as in beer) MySQL client for MS-Windows, which is not at the fore front of
graphical database managment utilities but has good features and is very
useful.
mysqlcc from MySQL AB is the closest you can currently get with a linux native
solution. their new administrator interface (mysqladmin or something) looks
much better but currently crashes when you get down to SQL, so it can be used
only to manage users, premissions and stuff and monitor the database - which
it does beautifully and is very fun.
I use the command line client 99% of the time, and phpmyadmin the other 1% -
baicly exactly because there are no good free linux graphical clients for
MySQL, and believe me - I tried them all(*). When I want to impress windows
users with me 1337 |-|/\(|<||\|9 skillz, I use MySQL-Front with Wine - it
works pretty well most of the time.
(*) Note: Kexi from the KOffice people aims to be the DB-GUI to end all
DB-GUIs. it supposed to be an Access UI on steroids with pluggable DB
backends. unfortunatly I couldn't get the last beta to run on my computer
stable (or anything other then crash 10 seconds into the main window), so I'm
holding out to the release. in the mean time you can have a look at the
competing product: Rekall by The Kompany, which is free as in speech but not
as in beer.
