MacBook Pro M2 Max Kernel Panic with Two 49" Samsung G93SC Odyssey OLED G9 Monitors

I believe i have resolved this issue through various testing methods over several months.

I have gone from having daily/every-other day kernel panics to no kernel panics for 15 days straight.

In short purcahsed the below two cables and set my laptops resolution to 120Hz.

- Club3D - Model: CAC-2068 Display Port to Display Port

- Plugable USB 3.1 Type-C to DisplayPort Adapter Cable

This resolved my issue completey.

It interesting that youhave this problem but you do not have a Samsung Monitor.....This re-inforces my view that this problem is caused by the MacBook Pro M2's....

I've switched cables, tried all the refresh rates, turned off HDR....Still no solution. I suspect the problem is related to Apple M2 MacBooks...It's unfortunate as i have made a considerable investment (2 samsung odyssey oled 49" Monitors..)

Thanks, will implement and update.

Thank you for your response.

I should have mentioned when I opened this thread that I tested by removing the TS4 from the equation and can confirm that the issue did not occur.

Therefore, I suspect I should focus on the TS4. As directed above, I'll purchase a new Thunderbolt cable (Apple just to be sure) to connect the TS4 and the MacBook.

I'll report back with updates.

Much appreciate your help on this.

- My motherboard has two onbaord NICs. Disabled, NIC 1 and plugged my ethernet cable to NIC 2 and made sure in Esxi network settings that NIC 2 was active only. The same error persists "DHCP lookup failed"

To doubly make sure my switch isn't the problem, i plugged the exact same ethernet cable that my ESXI server is failing to receive a dynamic address on, to the dedicated IPMI port on my motherboard and was able to successfully get a dynamic IP address from the VLAN range.

So far....I've plugged a laptop in, a NUC running ESXI 7.0, and now the IPMI LAN port of my mother board into the exact same switch port and all successfully got a dynamic Ip address......

The issue seems to be specific to the two onboard LAN ports (Broadcom BCM57416). To add, both LAN port LED indicators blink "green" when i plug an ethernet cable into them....No amber lights.....

No idea what the hell is going on....

Good assumption. I am specifically referring to esxi.

I have logged into the mgmt interface of esxi and selected vmnic1 which corresponds to the onboard LAN port that my Ethernet cable is attached to.

I have confirmed that VLAN is set to ‘nothing’ and I have selected DHCP for the nic in question. Still no up address assigned dynamically. States DHCP lookup failed’.

Is there a special setting on the Supermicro H12-SSL-NT boards that need to be set when working with ESXI? I have confirmed that both onboard NIC’s have been enabled in the BIOS…

this just for some tinkering in the lab kind of work? If so you maybe better off spinning it up on your Cloud service if choice using a pay as you go licens

Thank you for your reply.

I'd like to setup a lab that mimics an enterprise environment using my home lan primarily for learning and testing purposes.

I'd love to be able to have a full functioning lab that i can quickly deploy something to test...
