sure. firstly uninstall your existing jack install.
make sure you have svn installed. (some distros' call it subversion xx)
download the svn repository to you local drive from here.

svn co http://subversion.jackaudio.org/jack/trunk/jack

then cd to that dir, then run ./autogen.sh  

then run 

./configure --prefix=/usr  ( you probably need to change the prefix; depends on 
distro)

then check what jack is being built with. if all goes well, no errors 
then do;  

make && make install 

and that should be it.
