Please no. Keyboards without dedicated special keys for integrated functions should behave transparently, just translating user input to HID data. Beeing able to query the version via e.g. custom HID commands would be plenty enough.
If the trackpad is part of the keyboard USB device, then we can get firmware version with normal "lsusb" output;
Code:
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 258a:001e
Device Descriptor:
bLength 18
bDescriptorType 1
bcdUSB 1.10
