OK, I couldn't see any problems at first, and I didn't know about the
timeline view - never used it before (C-c a L in the default setup) -
but I think I can reproduce something like this (I haven't checked in
detail) with the above file and a minimal.emacs similar to this (paths
need to be modified):
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/src/emacs/org/org-mode/lisp"))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.\\(org\\|org_archive\\|txt\\)$" . org-mode))
(require 'org-install)
(global-set-key "\C-cl" 'org-store-link)
(global-set-key "\C-ca" 'org-agenda)
;; modify the path to point to the file above
(setq org-agenda-files '("~/src/org/misc/marks/foo.org"))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
