My first assumption here is that this should work. ROS depends very strongly on libraries such as boost, and really don't care which kernel it's running on top of. In fact, most of Ubuntu cares very little about the kernel.

The error you're seeing about "cannot contact my own master" is a network/loopback configuration issue and not related to the kernel. Try pinging your machine's hostname to confirm, then try adding your hostname to one of the loopback addresses in /etc/hosts
