No, they are different things - a seg fault is when a program attempts
to access a memory segment it doesn't own and a bus error is when a
program attempts to access memory beyond the capabilities of the
machine.  Both are caused by similar things, such as dereferencing
invalid pointers, but bus errors sometimes point to hardware problems.
