Problem with external display and macbook pro m1 max

Hi Community,


When I plug an external display to my macbook pro m1 max, I met some "freeze/hang".

After few minutes, my mac closes the session and a report has been created.


Could someone help me with this ?


Thanks for the help,

Temps écoulé depuis le démarrage: Environ 27 jours



According to the report, this back has not been restarted in 27 days.

This means that the mac is not really shutting down.


Sometimes a mere restart can restore things to normal.

Try restarting.

See if the problem recurs after a while or not.

Let us know.
