virtualbox-ose-modules in hardy-proposed verified, these are the steps I
took to verify:

HARDY
1. Booted into 2.6.24-21-generic
2. apt-get install virtualbox virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.24-23-generic
3. Rebooted into 2.6.24-23-generic
4. Attempt to run virtualbox gives:
WARNING: The character device /dev/vboxdrv does not exist.
         Please install the virtualbox-ose-modules package for your kernel,
         which is likely virtualbox-ose-modules-generic.

         You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.
5. Manually running 'depmod -a' followed by 'modprobe vboxdrv' resolves the 
problem.

PROPOSED

available)
