I believe this is an actual bug. Running jockey-gtk from System->Administration->Hardware Drivers ignores any proxy setup specified in synaptic, and there is no visible mechanism for setting a proxy in the jockey UI.

A workaround is to have proxy setups in environment variables: (http_proxy, etc.), and then run "sudo jockey-gtk" from the command line.
