I use Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and I was wondering if there are any good Bitcoin mining software with a GUI that is easy to understand. Can anyone help me out?

You can give bitcoin-qt a try.
Add the repository
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin
Update Software List
sudo apt-get update
Install the application
sudo apt-get install bitcoin-qt

1bitcoint-qt is not mining software, but a wallet and the block index. This means at startup time it currently needs to download (in compressed form) a history of all transactions ever conducted (currently, in 2017: 145 GB). It's a reference implementation though. – knb Sep 10 '17 at 09:21
