Ya, for the X-Arcade Dual that I have, you need to plug a keyboard in the back, but I just took a really old one apart for the matrix and stuck it in back there.

I used the controler board from an X-Arcade Dual (mainly for its console compatibility) to build my Control Panel.  I use the USB adapter for it and you do not need to plug in a PS/2 keyboad into the back of X-Arcade.  In fact, I have a regular USB keyboard plugged in for typing, etc...
