I just tested Linux Mint MATE 18.0 on a live USB stick and scrolling by 
mouse-wheel finally works!
Many thanks to everyone involved!

For Mint 17.x I know 2 solutions:
1. either install and use gnome-terminal instead of mate-terminal
2. or replace /usr/lib/libvte.so.9.2800.2 by one of Debian as I wrote in 
comment #13

For 2 search for "debian libvte9 0.28.2-5", download libvte9_0.28.2-5_i386.deb 
(or _amd64.deb), open it with the archive manager, extract 
"usr/lib/libvte.so.9.2800.2" and copy that file to /usr/lib
(I recommend to make a backup of your existing file first)
