[Openspace] Weight matrix problem?

Frank,
The reason for which Geoda crashes when using KNN is because in the
package the spatial regression is not programmed to work with
asymmetric weight matrices. See previous posts on this matter:

Regards,
Luis.

I assume that this is a problem, because my regression computation always crashes, but it does not for a different weight matrix without zeros. What can I do to fix this problem?
