I have virtualbox running perfectly on hardy with the 2.6.24-19 kernel, and I had it running on the 2.6.24-18 kernel as well. I didn't have any problems setting it up, although after using the OSE version I got the PUEL version because I wanted to be able to share a USB device.
As far as I know you shouldn't have any problems.
