The Kippah is only 18bit, RGB666.

"The pins used are GPIO 2 through 21 inclusive. That means you don't get 
the UART RX/TX pins (no console cable) and you don't get the standard 
user I2C pins, the EEPROM I2C pins, or hardware SPI pins. You do get to 
use pins #22, #23, #24, #25, #26 and #27, and the USB ports are fine to 
use too."

On the forum there are some that report they have used DPI in RGB888, 
but they're not using the Kippah. I had mentioned this to Phil E that 
there should be a dpi18 overlay, but not got around to sorting that.
