Hi
I use an external display which also charge the MacBook. It seem's that the display stops sending power while shutdown and then again. The result is that the MacBook Pro automatically restart after shutdown.
I tried 'sudo -a acwake 0' but it's not working and also not showing the parameter. It seem's to be different with Ventura and the new M2 MacBooks Pro.
Thanks

It would seem, because the Display is also the Source for Electric to Charge the computer.
When the computer is still attached to the Shutdown Display, the computer is switching automatically to the Battery Power.
Therein, the interruption in Power Source is the cause for Auto Restart ?
I don't think so. I have another M1 MacBook Pro with the same monitor which is not the case.
I think acwake has changed. It is not in the list of parameter and even if I use the power adapter to test it it starts without difference of the setting of acwake. 0 or 1 the MacBook always starts as soon as I plug in the power adapter. No change.

The problem is that it's not working. Ether with acwake 0 or 1 the MacBook starts after powering.
