Just tried to run jockey-text on my test server and found that it's not installed. Looked for the jockey-common package and found nothing. Even did a package search and there's no release for Trusty.
I feel like I've missed an important bit of news but what manages the "additional drivers" side of things in 14.04? Has Jockey been replaced or just renamed?
Open the terminal and type:
sudo apt install ubuntu-drivers-common
ubuntu-drivers-common detects and installs additional Ubuntu driver packages.
This package aggregates and abstracts Ubuntu specific logic and knowledge about third-party driver packages, and provides APIs for installers and driver configuration GUIs. It also contains some NVidia specific support code to findvthe most appropriate driver version (as Ubuntu usually ships several), as well as setting up the alternatives symlinks that the proprietary NVidia and FGLRX packages use.
The simplest front-end is the "ubuntu-drivers" command line tool. You can use it to show the available driver packages which apply to the current system (ubuntu-drivers list), or to install all drivers which are appropriate for automatic installation (sudo ubuntu-drivers install), which is mostly useful for integration into installers.

jockey has been superseded by software-properties in Ubuntu 14.04. Hence forth, software-properties would handle third-party driver configuration.
Sources: launchpad jockey-gtk amd64 and launchpad jockey-gtk i386.
software-properties-common available here packages.ubuntu.com and others available here.
If you want to launch from the command line to see additional output, launch software-properties-gtk.
