 To enable KVM your user must be added to the 'kvm' group:
 
-	$ usermod -aG kvm <username>
+	$ sudo usermod -aG kvm <username>
 
 Don't forget to load the appropiate KVM module for your CPU (x86 only):
 
-	$ modprobe kvm-amd # for AMD CPUs
-	$ modprobe kvm-intel # for Intel CPUs
+	$ sudo modprobe kvm-amd # for AMD CPUs

Comment:
I'm going to reject this. This would require a user to set up sudo first and grant the user executing the commands to either specififcally the permission to execute these commands as root or all commands. Furthermore it should be clear to most if not all people that these commands require root rights (the xbps command displaying it requires you to run it with root rights) and sudo is not the only way to escalate privileges.
