All stable on my side
Herewith, current information for pool mining Gapcoin ...
The original and 'final' CPU/GPU miner release(s) for Gapcoin (i.e. crt-rev5 and crt-rev5.1) were somewhat experimental, they are perhaps
unstable for more modern graphics cards and require continued development.
Those binary releases are perhaps best suited for RPC / solo mining (testing), before a new GPU miner and separate (or combined) CRT miner can be developed and released. Compiling these releases on linux from the original sources is also 'tricky' and the binaries need testing on => Ubuntu 18.04 LTS etc.,
...
Linux:
The optimal 'working' binary release for CPU mining in the pool is currently
gapminer-rev4. I've tested this release on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and the dependencies are met and it's very stable.

https://github.com/gapcoin-project/GapMiner/releasesAt present, I will suggest set-up as follows:
wget github.com/gapcoin/GapMiner/releases/download/gapminer-rev4/linux.zip
sudo apt-get install p7zip-full
7z x linux.zip
Running gapminer-cpu (requires pool registration and worker set-up):
linux/64/cpu/gapminer-cpu -o gap.suprnova.cc -p 2433 -u YOURusername.YOURworker -x YOURpassword --retries -1 -t 1 --stratum
N.B. Where -t is the number of CPU cores (threads) to mine with.
DONE !IMPORTANT : Please read how to action a CPU limit of upto 75% max. before you start Mining on a cloud server! (also useful for desktop mining upto say 97-99% max. to help preserve your hardware and/or productivity!) ...

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=822498.msg40934201#msg40934201N.B. No requirement to run gapcoind for pool mining here of course ... however the PID your looking for instead in top is: gapminer-cpu
...
Windows Desktop:
See:
https://github.com/gapcoin/GapMiner/releases/"GapMiner revision 4: supports CPU / GPU mining.
Changes: rewrote stratum network stuff to remove boost dependencies and to fix windows support."Currently untested. If someone would like to confim that cpu mining on windows is still working in the pool with gapminer-rev4 that would be great!
TBH I see absolutely no reason why it wouldn't ...
Simply unpack the windows.zip , then navigate to locate
gapminer-cpu.exe , move it to an appropriate folder on your drive, second mouse button click > Send to (create shortcut) to create a shortcut on your desktop (or drop and drag). Now second mouse button click the shortcut link > Properties and append to the Target: line ...
-o gap.suprnova.cc -p 2433 -u YOURusername.YOURworker -x YOURpassword --retries -1 -t 1 --stratum
Apply and run gapminer-cpu.exe via the Shortcut.
N.B. Again, where -t is the number of CPU cores (threads) to mine with.
DONE !N.B. or alternatively the .bat method should work just fine!
Good luck!
