interesting usecase. i never run jack for that long... but i guess some
people who are using it for museum exhibits do.

i think your best bet is to run jackd from the command line, using the
"screen" tool, so that it continues even if you log out or your X11
session dies.
i guess screen can be configured to have loads of line history, so that
you could retain lots of error messages. or you run

jackd 2> jack_stderr.log > jack_stdout.log &

then you have it all in files right away.
