Hi, I ran into a similar problem. I believe you have to use the fully qualified assembly name, with version number and all.
See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/52989/using-generic-classes-with-objectdatasourcefor a short code snippet that will allow to get this information for your specific case. This link deals with ObjectDataSources in ASP pages, but I used the same thing to get the relevant information for usage in iBatis. Hope this helps!
