Gta 5 unable to initialize directx 9 device

Hello,
Gta 5 used to work. I now want to start it (it’s been a few weeks since last ran it) and after a long time in the “loading” screen I get an error “unable to initialize directx 9 device”.
-Didn’t touch a thing in lutris
-I also have witcher 3. Ran that one without a problem.
-a new video driver is installed. Nvidia 430.64. That’s the only thing I can think of that has chanded.
-The log viewer for gta 5 is huge, 5000+ lines, so I rather not paste it.

-the top first line in log is (might not be related):
“ERROR: ld.so: object ‘libgamemodeauto.so’ from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.” Might not be related, who knows.

There’s also (repeating many times) :
err: D3D9DeviceEx::ResetSwapChain: Unsupported backbuffer format.
err: D3D9DeviceEx: Initial device reset failed.

hope this is detailed enough.
help.
thanks.
